    For my money the best Slug Gun on the market is the H&R UltraSlug in 12ga.

    I recently helped my buddy and his son sight-in the son’s new H&R UltraSlug. It has a 3×9 Nikon SlugHunter with the BDC reticle and a LimbSaver Recoil pad already installed when he brought it home. The shop he bought the gun at bore sighted it as well.

    Once we got the gun hitting the bullseye at 50 yards the young fella started shooting 3-shot groups with 3″ Winchester Partitioned Gold sabot slugs from a sandbagged benchrest. At 50 yds, he was consistently shooting a single jagged hole. At 100 yds he was still right on the bull by using the 100 yd. aim point in the Nikon Slughunter scope and he was consistently shooting loose cloverleafs. At 150 yds, he was still on the bull but the groups had opened to 2 1/2 inches. Due to lack of more shells he only fired one group at 200 yds and it measured just over 3 1/2 inches center to center!

    Now I have a Mossberg 500 with a cantilevered rifled barrel and a 4x Burris Scope and I struggle to get 6″ groups at 100 yds. I am 64 years old and I have never seen a 12 ga. slug gun shoot anywhere near that good before . . . even with a rifled barrel and scope. I have no idea if all H&R Ultraslug guns shoot that good but this one sure did! I told the young fella that if he ever decided to sell or trade that setup I’d give him double what his Dad paid for it . . . no haggling involved . . . and I mean every word of that.
