I have taken some heat here when I have talked about long range slug shooting. It has ranged from good natured ribbing to some strong inferences that I was outright lying.
Here is a link to a video featuring Hickock45 placing slugs on a more or less man sized target at 230 yards.

With a little practice and some technique it certainly can be done.
I reiterate my claim that a shotgun is not solely a close range weapon. It isn't a rifle, but it clearly isn't worthless at 200 yards either.
