Here is picture of the US-S slugs in a lineup
with other 12ga slugs I'm testing. Lefteris was kind enough to send me a few of each weight to test. They are the 3 in second row on the right. They are 570gr, 700 gr, 970 gr. I tested 570gr in 3.5" plastic so far. At 1900 in the NEF rifled, and in the 1887 smooth barrel, got 3" group on both. With peep sights an bad eyes.So the US-S slug is great in smoothbores, as good as rifled. My smoothbore on the 1887 is .723" bore at muzzle, a nice tight fit for smooth slugs. The smooth bores Lefteris tested them with are .722" muzzle, and they've already killed 5 wild boars, one shot kills with the 570gr slug. Also if anyone wants a heavy smoothbore new 12ga barrel, .722" muzzle, 1.375" outside diameter to make a great slug gun with slugs like these, and others like the Brenekkes, I have spare one. The US-S slugs are smoothbore accurate in my 87 like the Brenekke KOs.In the picture the left two cases are 3.5" Fiocchi with the Fiocchi magnum primers. I compared that primer to the REM 209 primer and it has about the same strength.Next two are FED 3.5". then 2 12GA FH 3.85" cases, then 3.5" RMC brass, then 3" RMC brass, the 2 WIN 3.5", then 2 REM 3.5".ED
