Slugs in Mossberg 9200

I've got a factory slug barrel on the way for my 9200. I'm probably not going to hunt with it but would like to get an idea on the best shooting slugs without having to buy one of each off the shelf.

...from my cold dead fingers!!

    Is the barrel rifled or smooth bore?

    If it is rifled and you like the sabot rounds, try the Winchester Supreme Sabot 385 grain. If those don't group well try the next brand.

    If you don't like the sabot rounds (or the price) or the barrel is smooth bore, buy the least expensive regular slug (1 box) you can find and shoot a few to see if your gun likes them.

    If that brand doesn't group well, try the next and the next until you find one that does. Sorry, that wasn't what you wanted to hear but nobody can tell you what your gun will shoot well - only testing it out will answer the question.

    Honestly, I've never had to go through more than a few brands to find slugs that deliver good accuracy.

    I have found though, that the 2 3/4" slugs seem to group a little better that the 3".
