Its Cheep,Light 5.1/4#, and in 12Ga or 45/70 it Kicks like a Mule with every Brand Slug on the market. If this is your only Gun..use-it! if not get you the Savage Mod 212 Bolt Action Slug Master, Its set to take a Scope or Iron sights, it has a Two round Mag +1 in the Chamber=3 not just 1 Round....just saying

I have several of the NEF (H&R) and like them. Have not shot the 12ga, but do have the .50cal black powder. The transfer bar is a big advantage as you do not have to manipulate a safety. Another advantage is you can add other gauges or calibers as you need them.
I would try rifled slugs in the barrel beside sabot type.
The single shot can be loaded for a follow up shot almost as fast as a pump or bolt with a little practice.
Good luck and happy hunting.

I have the 12 gauge super slugger and love it. I use lightfield hybrid in 2 3/4" and at 100 yards I can put them through the same hole. It does kick like a mule but with the accuracy you should only need 1 shot. I switched from an 870 with a riffled barrel. I couldn't get a tight group with any slugs in that gun. Highly recommend it if you can handle the kick.

If you are looking for an accurate slug gun, the browning A-bolt cannot be beat. I bought one when browning first brought them to market in the mid nineties. They were only offered for four years but browning brought them back a year or two ago. I shoot Winchester partition golds; have leupold shotgun scope. The best gun purchase I have ever made. Upgraded from an 870 rifled barreled. The savages are nice too, I find the browning nicer.

I've used the Model 980 "Ultra" Slug in 3" to take several deer. I don't see a problem with recoil compared to a 3.5 inch 12 or 10 gauge with lead turkey loads. This gun has the mass to absorb recoil. In a hunting situation recoil is manageable or ignored. If placed properly the 12 gauge slug is deadly. Try it, you'll like it!

I purchased the H&R ultra slug hunter about three years ago and have had to have it worked on three times. Just today it misfired again while shooting at a deer. Will be getting rid of this gun. I know a friend having the same trouble. My new mission is to save people from H&R ultra slug hunter!

Reply to New Weatherby Loadby jhjimboFitch, the new 'Hammer' bullet line is almost hand made/turned. Competitors and Hunters alike can not say enough about their product line.

Reply to New Weatherby Loadby jhjimbo$9 I would guess are for the large calibers - safari grade. Regular .300WbyMag probably list in the $65 a box range. I have bought some for $40 a box...
