i am getting a 20 ga smoothbore slug barrel for my ithaca 37. any suggestions for what slugs to buy and try out. i have shot slugs for 30 years thru my similar ithaca 37 12 ga, which likes lightfields, so i am aware of basic principles. plan to try out several brands, non-sabot, wondering which ones some of you think i should be sure to include.

  Try a couple. I found remington sluggers to work well in about every gun. I have also had good luck with winchester rifled slugs. Brennke I have used but they are pricey, so I opt for the cheaper slugs.

  i have a couple of ithaca 37 slug guns and Brenneke have always shot the best thru them.

  Brenneke, hands down. Been using them for 50 years and have tried all the rest but the Brenneke takes them all in smoothbore or rifled barrels. Make sure you get the right Brenneke as they make them for both smoothbore and rifled barrels. They are awesome in accuracy and performance.

  i must say this certainly resulted in strong consensus!
  very helpful, thanks to all for replying.
  it's a tough deer hunting adjustment moving from Kansas to eastern VA again!
