You stated "some of us are going to a custom 1-26" twist barrel". Have you tried that yet? I see badger barrels have that twist is that the barrel you are talking about? I shoot an 11-87 with a remington cantalever rifled barrel. I used to use lightfield slugs and it was very accurate. I went to Hornady SST's and they are bad. I tried the High velocity Remingtons and they were about the same. I was wondering if you guys actually had tried some of the 1900 fbs and above slugs out of the badger (or other 1-26") barrel. Thanks in advance for any help. Hey MI Slugger, great post. You stated “some of us are going to a custom 1-26″ twist barrel”. Have you tried that yet?

It is set up with a BUSHNELL DUSK TO DAWN 3-9-40 scope. I also have rings with 4 screws per ring for clamping force. My brother has re-free floated the stock. I plan on using HORNADY SST sabot slugs and have added 4 lbs to the buttstock. My question is this..advertised barrel length is 24.. but it says rifling is only 1 in 20.5 inches. If this is true...what kind of accuracy/groups can I expect from this 10-12 lbs slug gun? Please e-mail me with any information you might find. (Was hoping for 200 yards or greater.) I live in Michigan and fire-arm deer season is November 15th. 10-8-08 Dear Steve,
