will 12ga. slugs shoot reasonably well out of a shotgun chocked skeet and skeet?

Your results may vary depending on what brand of slugs you shoot.

Define reasonably well.
Get your gun out and pace off a few yards and put some shots down range.
You'll be surprised and or impressed.

Define reasonably well as in deer hunting.

I’d expect skeet choke to shoot rifled slugs well but some brands will be better than others as the distance stretches. Only some range time and testing will give you the real story.

You can shoot factory made slug ammunition through any choke designation, they will not damage the choke.

How well they shoot can depend on the make and on the choke designation. You have to test to determine what your shotgun likes...

A skeet choke should be ok to get decent results with a good smootbore slug ....

But you need to test your gun with the slug you want to shoot .....

Here is an example of what is possible with a smoothbore and slug combination that like each other .....

870 Police with an Improved Cylinder choke and Federal Truball slug at 100 meters ....

And you are saying "skeet and skeet" .... so you are referring to a double barrel shotgun? Over/under or SxS?

If yes, each barrel will likely shoot to a different point of aim ..... shotguns in general are not regulated like double rifles ....
