  A:

  From Hornaday website https://www.hornady.com/ammunition/shotgun/12-ga-superformance-reg-slug-300-gr-monoflex-reg#!/
  The Superformance® Shotgun slug can be used in areas with lead restrictions, afford maximum penetration, and is capable of taking everything from Midwest whitetails to Alaskan moose.
  Also unless I missed something I don't think shotgun shells have the same restrictions as regular ammo
  "California bans the manufacture, importation, sale, offer for sale, or knowing possession or transportation of handgun ammunition designed primarily to penetrate metal or armor.28 This ban applies to any ammunition (except a shotgun shell or ammunition primarily designed for use in rifles) "

  You should be good to go either way

  Dale, a fully rifled shotgun barrel has rifling instead of the normal smooth bore to stabilize the bullet for best accuracy. Cheers and stay safe!

  A:

  yes it can be used with a rifled tube and even a smoothbore barrel. accuracy will be best in a full rifled barrel.
• Q: Trying to see what the FPS is on these. My rifled shotgun has a 1 in 35" twist and I've seen the best performance for shotguns that have between 1 in 34" twist work best with 1200-1500 fps and shotguns with 1 in 30" perform best with 1900-2000 fps. Looking for the perfect round that will give the sabot proper spin for my shotgun. Thanks in advance.
