Rifled slugs were made for rifled barrels. Why do you think you got bad info?

No they're not. Rifled slugs are for smooth bore guns. The rifling on the slugs imparts spin to stabilize the projectile.
Sabot slugs are for rifles barrels.
Check the owners manual. I've seen guns that are supposed to be OK for shooting rifled slugs. There is generally an admonition of some type in the manual.

Are Sabots in rifled barrel more accurate than rifled in smoothbore?
|
Generally, yes and as range increases so does the accuracy difference. Specifically, it will depend on the exact combination of gun and ammo (just like any other gun). My gun shoots Remington Core_lokt Ultras VERY well but produces 14 inch groups with Winchester XP3s. My old Rem 870 smooth bore shot Winchester Super-X slugs better than anything else I ever tried. The only way to know is to try them and that gets rather pricey with sabot rounds.
