Gunners,

I was told that a fully rifled .12 ga. barrel will fire foster type slugs with no loss of accuracy compared to the saboted slugs designed for fully rifled barrels.

The only thing that may be lost is range due to the heavier projectile and we hunt usually between 25 and 60 yards.

Is this true?
