Ballistics For 20 Gauge Sabot Slugs

7mmWSM · June 28, 2010, 01:49 PM

I just purchased an H&R Ultra Slug Hunter, single shot, shotgun in 20 gauge youth for my 11 year old grandson to start hunting deer this coming fall. Does anyone know of a source for published ballistics for the Hornady SST's, Remington Copper Solids, or other sabot slugs? Anybody experienced with the ballistic drop and velocity figures in the real world? Thanks for any input.

This is the chart you are looking for. You can get the sabot from pretty mild to pretty wild.
