Foster type Rifled Slugs in Rem 1100 30" Full choke?

Yeah, this seems to be debated eternally, but I was wondering in this specific case whether using Brenneke Foster type rifled slugs would be SAFE in a Rem 1100 Full choked 30" barrel. Yes, I said SAFE, not accurate.

physically safe to the shooter, yes. in my opinion not a wise choice. for me slugs should be fired through modified or looser chokes.

Foster slugs are safe out of any choke. The lead is soft enough to flow through the choke with no damage. More open chokes ie. IMP CLY are better suited for accuracy.

Thanks! Brenneke foster slugs are among my favorite for creative plinking.
