Can anyone tell me if I can shoot Sabot slugs out of a Paradox rifled barrel?

I used to but then I traded the gun off. It shot about 2.5" groups at 50 yards on good days and 4" on bad days. Come to think of it that may have been the same day as I didn't shoot too much paper with it. I can't remember the brand of slugs I used but they came in a grey box. I mostly shot rocks with it and a couple jackrabbits.

The gun I had was a Spanish double with rifled choke tubes.

If you're talking about the Hastings Paradox barrels, the answer is yes. I have one for my Remington 11-87. The BRI and Remington solid copper sabot slugs both shot very well. New York now allows rifles for deer hunting in the areas I frequent so I haven't used it for a few years, but I always had confidence with that setup when shotguns with slugs were the law.

I just realized which forum this is. You're probably referring to the other paradox barrels, so my earlier response isn't really applicable.
