Slugs will run fine threw this, obviously someone at Savage didn't know what they were talking about. Wich isn't shocking most people who answer questions for gun manufacturers are just secretary types who don't know much about their actual products. This will work best with rifled slugs. Hope this helps.

Joshua, that was highly unlikely information Sir. This shotgun has an 18.5\" Barrel with Cylinder Choke and you will get the best accuracy with Foster Type Slugs. Saying you can\'t shoot slugs through it is like saying you can\'t shoot .38 Special through a .357 magnum. Cheers and stay safe!

Joshua, Slugs should be fine, use rifled slugs. --- "The Stevens Model 320 Security Shotgun comes in 12 GA, which is pretty much the standard chambering in a shotgun designed for security/law enforcement work. Additionally, there is a wide selection of 12 GA ammo out there that will fill your needs, from birdshot for target practice to 00 Buckshot for serious self defense, to a rifle slug for taking some of the biggest game around." >>> https://survivalblog.com/2018/05/28/stevens-model-320-security-shotgun-pat-cascio/
