Rubicon,

I use my SBE as a slug gun. I bought a fully rifled ER Shaw barrel for it. Put a Remington one piece scope mount on it and Burris Signature Rings with a Burris Fullfield II 3-9x scope. I shoot Federal/Barnes sabots out of it and they are pretty deadly. What I like about the slug barrel is that the scope and barrel come off as a single unit, so it doesn't really get too far off zero. I can switch between the bird barrel and the deer barrel rather easily.

On top of that, I have a recoil reducer in the stock of the SBE and when I use the slug barrel, I put another recoil reducer, a mercury filled magazine cap, on the gun. The felt recoil is almost nothing and I can shoot the gun all day.
