    Slug or buckshot

    im heading out tomorrow morning in an area labeled as "No Rifle" are. I know that means shot gun or bow only. It DOES NOT specify if its single projectile prohibited. Is it safe to assume I can use Slug instead of buckshot. Help is greatly appreciated ASAP.

    Thanks

    No one here can specify for you if you don't post the area you are heading to. However, if it mapA15 in region 1-1... then that is how I would read it. Outside of 1-1 then it is buckshot no slugs.

    Usually listed as:
    Shot only ( 8 or more projectiles )
    Bow only bow/ crossbow
    No shooting area = no guns

    I've always followed the school of thought that using a single projectile (slug) means your shotgun is now a rifle.

    See it = i read it as no firearm use.
    Just my 2 cents.

    Call local CO and clarify.

    As a CO told me that if it's a single projectile then it's a rifle...especially hence a rifled slug....i would go with a heavy buckshot if you want better distance

    wouldn't it specify shot only like the rest of the synopsis does though?
