BudsGunShop.com - Use in a 12 gauge smoothbore NON-Rifled Barrel?
-
-
I bought these for Deer hunting and extreme self defense applications, but I am JUST NOW seeing that the back of the box says "for Rifled barrels ONLY". Wtf. Wish that was stated somewhere on this listing with Bud's Gun Shop! Anyway, do you think that I could safely and accurately use these in a standard Mossberg 500 with a regular smoothbore barrel? Any risk there? Upsides, downsides? I am okay if with accepting a slight accuracy loss, but I'd still like to be able to use these...

Jeffrey, degraded accuracy will occur but will be well past normal self defense ranges. No issues on the shotgun using them. Very good info here : theboxotruth.com/the-box-o-truth-46-shotgun-slugs-sabots-and-smooth-bore-barrels/
