The shotgun as a rifle

[theorangecat]

At 100 yards, full power slugs (1500fps actual) vs LR (1300 fps actual), the difference is only 59fps.

Yeah, the differences between full power and reduced recoil - at least FPE at the muzzle - aren't a real night and day comparison, but even if my retinas and shoulder could stand more guff from full power slug loads, my visual accommodation makes slugs fired from an open-sighted smoothbore a bit shorter proposition than in days gone by.
