April 10th, 2010 by eranio

Its my first year hunting whitetail, i will be using a 12 gauge, 2 and 3/4" slug. I will be hunting a winchester model 1300 or a some savage semi auto. I just picked up federal truball, winchester super-X , remington slugger and winchester supreme platinum tip slugs. Whats the effect range? There both smooth bored shotguns. and open sights.
They all say 1 oz execpt the winchester supreme. It says 400 grains. How big is the 1 oz. whats that mean? im good with rifles but i dont know anything about slugs

Is the Mossberg 535 a good shotgun for home defense?

December 4th, 2009 by eranio

My dad bought me this 12 gauge Mossberg 535 last weekend for my birthday. We plan on hunting turkey with it this fall.
He also bought me two boxes of Winchester Supreme 3 1/2" Turkey loads for this shotgun.
Will the 3 1/2" Turkey load be great for self defense also?
