fullbore Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Been using one for ages now and love it although the 3.5 inch shells are not too easy to get hold of this side of the pond, at least not where Ive been looking, anyone know any different?

leon Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 I use a Benelli 3 1/2 with super full ported turkey choke and no.2 buffered sheels that I reload myself.... through the rimfire away!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Flaming Nora , that is some gun . Personally a no 4 with a daft fox at 25yds does me with my Barreta A 304 Semi-auto It does look tempting though for them areas where a rifle cant be used and a fox does not come in closer than 60yds .

M ROBSON Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 (edited) Fullbore, Try here: http://www.rmacleod.co.uk/index2.htm It's a bit far away from you but they stock a great range a shooting equipment. I bought some 12g 3.5" winchester xx off them last year, got them for a good price too. They are an importer of winchester ammo and even had some 36g superspeeds left. Mark.

Jon-Boy Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 (edited) are slugsters legal in this country? I can imagine a rifled slug through a shotgun produces quite a thump, and will travel quite far! Ive heard rifled shotguns and slugs can be accurate up to 200 yards! This surely is more dangerous than most rifles! Edited August 18, 2005 by Jon-Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badsworth Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 The shotguns are legal - but the ammunition needs a FAC (SG ammo must have 6 or more shot not exceeding .36" in diameter). Accurate up to 200 yards? Well that depends what you call accurate. The ones I have fired would give you about an 8" group at 100 yards - and a dislocated shoulder if you shoot in the prone position.

Baldrick Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Will try to find the link but there is a US firm that customises Brownings, Ithacas and Benellis into "sniper" slug guns. Not sure exactly what they do to to the internals, if anything, but with a scope and bipod they claim to group brilliantly out to 180 yards.
