New: Dominion Buck and Slug $149.99 per case

So...has anyone tried the slugs in a rifled barrel yet?

EDIT: Perhaps more importantly, can these slugs be fired safely from a choked barrel?

I got a case of the slugs and I love em! Soft on the shoulder, nice and accurate too. I didn't know how a choked barel would handle them so I didn't risk it. Buddy had a Winchester 1500 that cycled these slugs without issue.

If canam's measurement of the ball is accurate, and my understanding of choke sizes based on wikipedia, chokes *should* be fine
 
Range report Benelli M4 BRAND NEW GUN
Maybe 15 target loads through before camping dog ran off last weekend.. shooting cut short, and had some hiccups cycling. Might need a break in i thought?

Canpar brings me these dominion buck and slugs. look cool. like that they are clear.

Slugs first. Modified choke. 20Yard 5 shot group the size of a basketball.
out of a box of 25 only ONE time did it cycle. rest were FTE and stovepipes.

Buckshot next. Long rounds. can only get FOUR in the tube... :(
Cycled flawlessly. EVERY TIME!!!! super rapid firing. love it.

That's my story.
 
I shot 50 slugs last Monday.
25 of the Dominion, 25 of Seller & Belliot.
Gun was new 7+1 with cyl bore.
I shot the rifled S&B first and the accuracy was great at about 50 yrds. Turning frying pans into swiss cheese no prob.

Less than impressive results with the Dominion though.
I had fired some birdshot as well in between the boxes of slugs.
I sincerely attribute the Dominions poor accuracy to the fact that my shotguns barrel was VERY hot after running an abundance of shells in a short period of time.
 
I have used both in my Versamax Tacticals and never skipped a beat, and that goes without saying in my KSG's they are perfect as well. I can see that these rounds are not for all makes and models but I am fortunate to not have the same bad luck. I wonder if possibly its a batching issue seeing's that there made in a country that's not well known for their quality control.
 
unsure. The slugs are shorter, so its not an issue of gas not getting to the ports on the m4. I was under the impression the M4 was a top pick for reliability?
 
My apologies if you thought I was implying to the quality of your M4 as I was directing towards the Dominion shells, I personally think the M4 is one hell of a fine semi. Its the old story of some products work for some people and not for others (shotgun shells that is) :)

Does the Benelli cycle trap loads?

Agree- It's not uncommon for a Benelli M4 to need some breaking in. The fact it didn't fully cycle 'low recoil' slugs out of the box is not something I'd worry about. MarshallLaw I'd put another couple hundred rounds through the M4, and then bet it would work flawlessly with the slugs.

Im buying some slugs to test in my M4 now. :)
