Looking for advice on what cheap slugs I can use in my HSH 20 ga , that won't foul up my barrel too bad for initial sighting in ?

REmington buck hammers...

Second the buckhammers. I used them for sighting in and killing deer. Best slug I have found for actually killing deer and not crippling them.

Buchhammers here too. Can be found pretty much anywhere and put a hurtin on deer.
Had to switch because the Hastings slugs I was shooting went out of business. Buckhammers were basically the same slug/wad concept.
Switched, sighted in, same POI.
Now they make Hastings slugs again

Probably going to stay with the hammers around $7 a box.

SgtUSMC - pm me. Your box is full.

Use the yellow/green remingtons, for sighting in very reasonably priced.

Then try something else after it is shooting.
You will probably be surprised that the Remington Sluggers (actually a Foster type Slug) might just shoot better than the Buskhammers.
In my 20 ga H&R with 2x scope smoothbore, the Remington Foster slugs shoot almost half as large a group as the Buckhammers or Sabot shells.

Wal-Mart sell the Fosters in 20 gauge for about $3.59 for 5 Fosters. I even got a multipack their about 25 slugs and that made it even cheaper yet for 5 Foster. Make sense to hit the target with something first then you can use the more expensive slugs. I will have to try the Buckhammers but only after I shoot in near bullseye with the cheaper Fosters.

I did pickup a Multi pack of 15 each 20 gauge Fosters slugs at Wal-Mart...$8.49 for 15 Fosters purchased this way...Figure I might take the 20 gauge slug gun for a walk one of the 2010 deer days...

Heck, I always carry a few cheapies with me when I'm hunting to use as finishers. No sense in wasting a $4.00 winchester partition gold on something 3/4 dead already.

If it is a rifled barrel i do not suggest using forster type lead slugs through it. Stick to saboted rounds, and figure out what u want to try and go from there.

 

[iggy63]

i think buckhammers can be shot out of a rifle barrel and smooth barrel. is this true?

 

[NeinPoint]

yeah, using foster slugs in a rifled barrel is a bad idea..

You can roll your own sabots, slugs, etc if you go here:
