Hi, Sujata Arms SBBL is also very good when it comes to choke pattern. All of their guns are FULL CHOKE. If you get a chance to see and use it, have a try.
Cheers

Anybody tell me that can i fire shaktiman spherical slug from 32 inch SBBL made by Bhati & co? Is it safe or not.

Dear Javedali,take a look at SBBL made by Bhati and Co.
I don't know the type of steel used in the making,but I can assure you that it's good quality and is lot better than many other SBBL's I have seen. It's well made and has a choked barrel.Price for the same varies from Rs 9,000 to Rs 20,000 depending upon the arms dealer.

Hey Bishop, tell me that can i shoot slugs in SBBl made by Bhati and co...is it safer or not?

Yes,you can.
So far I've used shaktiman hollow points,round ball and some custom slugs through it with good results.

Is your gun is like this one?... I have same copy of gun that is shown in above photo... my barrel length is 32 inch

Yes,this is exactly how it looks.Compared to other shotguns it has better finish,very good ejectors,balanced around forehand grip and bit weight to it.

But a person suggested me that we shouldn't use slugs in choke barrel, they can bulge the barrel if we use them multiple times...what do you think?

Use slugs with ‘ribs’ as shown in the pic below. The ribs can squeeze through the tight choke without causing any problem to the gun.

What is the exact diameter of shaktiman spherical ball slug ? Because ball slug is more popular than rifled and hollow point.. bcoz of accuracy and its highest penetration property.

Hi Bishop,
I agree with you but I also fire approx 300 cartridges from my visco SBBl i never miss a single shot from It

Visco gun is very popular in Himachal..... their barrel quality seems too good

Hello Dear ,

I have a 2013 model Bhati And Co. , Jodhpur SBBL gun purchased in 2018.
Sadly , I'm not satisfied from it's performance while using 4.8 , 6 and other numbered cartridges
And on two or three occasions , I've used Spherical Ball and Hollow Point shells due to which the magazine tube expands from it's original size and the forearm got jammed
So I have to got it repaired from a local gunsmith and he warned me that not to use those two particular shells again .
Please guide me that which SBBL gun may be best , new or used , for general purpose at farmhouse and for home defense
Thank you very much for your concern
