What I know about shotguns could be written on the back of a postage stamp so please bear with me...
Though I own quite a few firearms I only own 1 shotgun - a 12ga Stoeger SXS Coach Gun that I use for CAS.
I was wondering if one can fire slugs out of it? It's a total smoothbore so if one fires slugs is there a special kind of slug one must use? How does a slug get spin imparted to it when fired from a smoothbore barrel. From a 20" barreled Shotgun (I think the Stoeger is a 20 - might be an 18) what is the max effective range?
