This is a smooth bore barrel, and yes rifled slugs are ideal in smooth bore shotguns

Derrick, the barrel is smooth bore and Foster Type Slugs are recommended for beat performance : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/15600/federal+vital+shok+12+ga+2+34+1+oz+lead+rifle+slug+5rd+box

It is a smooth bore barrel, and rifled slugs will shoot great out of it. Stay safe and happy plinking!!

Like others have said this has a smooth bore Barrel. Even though the name rifled barrel makes you think it should work well with rifled slugs, it can actually wear or ruin your barrel. In a rifled barrel you want sabot slugs. In a smooth bore Barrel like the one on this shotgun you want rifled slugs. Hope this helps.

Derrick, it is a smoothbore barrel with a fixed cylinder choke, so it will shoot rifled slugs just fine. Have a great day!
