No from rossi The use of slugs are unsafe to use in anything with a front sight bead (permanent modified choke). Any firearm that has the ability to shoot slugs will state such, such as the slug gun or the turkey gun (with the WARNING - SLUG USE appropriate choke). Other than these two, slugs are unsafe. owners manual pg 14 https://www.budsgunshop.com/prod_mans/26056-0000128010-002.pdf
