I am returning or selling my new Remington factory rifle sighted rifled 870 barrel because it is useless with any type of shot. I believe it is capable of 2" at 100 feet with slugs? What will a smooth bore rifled sighted barrel do at 100 feet with slugs? I might as well have been shooting with blanks!!!
