Does the Deerslayer have a rifled barrel?
I’d see how the 20 ga did with slugs vs the 12ga. Slugs can be a study all their own.
A T/C Contender carbine in 30-30 may be interesting. The 130 Hornady is very accurate in my ‘06, a real killer. That’s not the varmint version.
Interesting situation. Congrats of the new digs, sounds nice. We always like pictures.

No rifling in the Deerslayer, it's an older minimum dimension smooth bore. Some had a pretty good rep for slug accuracy. The 16 GA is a featherweight, not sure how much time I want to spend behind that shooting slugs.
Already have my 30-30, 1923 vintage Savage 99 featherweight. Took my buck with it last November, still works just fine.
