For those of you with slug guns out there. I don't know if you guys have seen this, but Remington has a new slug now.
The Premier AccuTip Sabot Slug ..... Watch the video on Remington's home page through the link......wow!

Looks really good, but what range were they shooting? I can do that with Sluggers at 25 yards. I've had really good success with my KO Sabots and I am sighted in for that round. I wonder how much these will cost? I'd hate to blow $100 on 25 rounds just to sight in again for my Ohio deer rifle.

Say's "consistently groups 2" at 100 yards". Edit: Hornady SST slugs have been getting groups like that since they came out a few years ago. Pretty amazing from a shot-gun slug. You pay for that accuracy though, The hornady's are usually around 15$ per five so sighting in gets pricey each year before hunting season.

Yeah, 100 yards. That's pretty good for a slug punchin the same hole. No matter what brand it is.

I can get 1-1 1/2" groups with Lightfield 3" slugs.

Ditto I really like the Lightfield sabots in my 20 Gauge 1100 and the Beretta 390 9 bucks for 5 shells but they hit like a sledge hammer and are accurate as well. I've tried the Hornady S2k, Winchester platinum, Winchester BRI, Remington Copper solids-Great shooters and make a hell of a hole, Fed Barnes expanders ect. My wallet is alot lighter and other than the rem copper solids and lightfields I feel like I was ripped off every time.
