[QUOTE="436, post: 2213800, member: 16609"] Actually, when I want a slug to perform I use my 18" inch Ithica Mod 37 Deerslyer, it's the one I always take on our camping trips/camper with my wife when we drive Alaska backcountry. For it, I picked [SIZE=4]Brenneke Black Magic Magnum 12 Gauge 3" 1-3/8 oz Lead, Rifled Slug, now that's some serious stuff for critters that bite, and yes even the ones that don't. ;) They are a very, very good slug, and out-classed Foster-type slugs which are great general prepose slugs however they most certainly are not in Brenneke's class. The Mod 37 is a tack-driver (for a shotgun) with its rifled barrel out... way farther than you might think. If a big Bear challenges this lead pumper he's going home with a sore butt for sure. 🤕 [ATTACH type="full"]278345[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]278346[/ATTACH][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
