I appreciate all the insights! Remember, every shotgun is different, so be patient with your findings. Zeroing can be frustrating, but it’s worth it when you hit your target consistently!
I’m also looking for a good shotgun scope for slugs! I’ve heard that the Nikon ProStaff is a solid choice for clarity and accuracy. Has anyone tried it?
I have the Nikon ProStaff, and I can vouch for its reliability! It holds zero well and has great light transmission.

While the Nikon is nice, I personally prefer the Vortex Optics Strike Eagle. The reticle is bright and clear, making it easy to line up shots at distance.

That sounds great! Do you find it easy to adjust for slug shooting specifically?

Absolutely, the adjustments are straightforward! I’ve used it on several occasions, and it’s performed like a champ. Plus, the warranty is great.
I’m actually thinking of getting the Bushnell Banner Dusk & Dawn. I’ve read some reviews that recommend it for low-light conditions which could be useful during early morning hunts.
I’ve heard good things about that one as well! But I’ve also seen some users claim that it doesn’t hold zero as consistently as others.
That’s interesting! I guess it comes down to personal experience. Have any long-time slug hunters used it over a few seasons?
I’ve used the Bushnell for two seasons now and haven’t had issues with the zero. It’s held up well, even after some rough trips!
To be honest, I’m still debating if I should just stick with iron sights. Sometimes simpler is better, right? But then again, a good scope could enhance my accuracy.
Good point! But let’s face it, who doesn’t love the look of a nice scope? It’s like upgrading from regular coffee to espresso!
