opinions on the Mossberg 500 with the rifled barrel? I was looking at them for the public land I hunt says you can shoot a slug 100-150 accurately with them. wondering how true that really is!

I have a mossy 500 combo I got on sale at cabelas - imo their barrels are better than savage and Remington- plus, you can't beat mossy's customer service. just find the right slug that works for you - getting accurate to 100 to 150 is definitely doable- good luck!

If you want accuracy, a cantilever scope mount will be your best bet. The mount is attached to the barrel permanently. You can then mount a scope to it. And should be pretty close every time you change the barrel out.
I've used the receiver holes on mine (1st production run 835) with a mount and rings. That set up is great when turkey hunting with smooth bore. But it was not near as accurate as what my cantilever barrel is.
