I shot 20 gauge slugs from a Parker DH with Titanic barrels choked IC/Lt.Mod at a target set at 15 yards. It was no surprise that the right barrel punched holes about 9” to the left of the bull and 8” low. The left barrel placed them almost a foot to the right and 10” low.

This gun patterned very nicely with RST 2 1/2” ammo with 7/8 oz. of #8 shot.

I have seen deer hit with 20 gauge slugs that went down like they were poleaxed....
