I plan to purchase a rifled shotgun slug gun in the next week.

I am experienced cleaning smooth bore shotguns and regular rifles, but not rifled shotguns.

I need to see the take-down of the actual gun (Ithaca Deerslayer II), but if the barrel isn't fixed would you guys just use a rod? Should I use a bore guide like it was a rifle?

If the barrel is fixed should I just use a bore snake?
