Remington Choke Tubes

[Fins-n-feathers]

Do Remington rifled choke tubes work with rifled slugs? Do they make a difference in accuracy as apposed to an Improved Cylinder? Are they worth the investment?

I run a rifled tube in my win sx2. Yes it does work with rifled slugs, but I haven't determined if it is any better. Where it does shine is giving me great groups with remington buckhammers, which flat out work as advertised.

I have a smoothbore barrel - any suggestions for rifled slugs?

buy a box each of a few different brands and see what works best. for foster style rifled slugs, I've been liking the federal tru-balls and the high velocity remington sluggers lately. Breneke's are popular, and some guns will shoot the plain old 1 oz winchester super x "gas station specials" great as well. Plenty of options to help find the one that groups nice!

I shoot an 870 (smoothbore) and I have great results with the cheap federal tru-ball slug.

After shooting my 870 for gun hunting deer since 1986, I found the Remington Slugger 1 ounce works the best. Just try some and use a improved cylinder choke. 5" groups at 50 yards with a smoothbore is good!

My hunting buddy and I are going to the range this weekend, I dug through his ammo drawer and found some loose Sluggers and some Winchester Super-X. I will probably get a box of whatever does better.

I also have an 870 with a shooth bore and do great with Brennikies really great groups at 80 yards.

The Remington Sluggers and the Winchester Super-X shot exactly the same at 25 yards. That is about as far as I would go as I just have a double bead on my shotgun. Just thinking of taking some along if I ever go grouse hunting during deer season.
