Everyone pretty much touched off on the fact that 10ga. slugs are nearly non-existent. They are far and few between if they do exist... however I'm sure they exist in some far-off land somewhere... seriously.
Anyways... 10ga. is really, really, really, brutal.
That Ithaca Roadblocker 10ga. Semi looks like a whole lotta fun.............. it really isn't. It's just painful.12 gauge slug or 10 gauge slug for hunting deer?

I've been around awhile to. Haven't seen a 10 gauge slug yet, although im sure they exsist. I know with certain types of game shot, they were as leathal as any buckshot in a 12 gauge.And has accounted for any number of deer. One still floats around my family in a double barrel. And has soundly knocked certain shooters out unconscience that felt the urge of pulling the trigger. It's not for the timid at heart.
I am with the God Fearing Outdoorsman; I have been shooting and hunting for 33 years and have peronsally owned two different 10 gauge shotguns. I have never seen a 10 ga. slug. In fact, I don't think I have ever seen 10 ga. buckshot for that matter...even though Ithaca used to sell a version of their Mag-10 called the ';Roadblocker'; for law enforcement use.
I have been around guns all my life and never have seen a 10 gauge slug.
That's not saying they don't exist. It's saying they are very rare.
12 gauge would be the better choice for that reason. You get plenty of punch with a 12 gauge.
Slugger庐 Rifled Slugs
Always in the forefront of deer slug technology, Remington redesigned their 12-gauge Slugger Rifled Slug for a 25% improvement in accuracy. Also, at 1760 fps muzzle velocity, their 3'; 12-ga. Magnum slugs shoot 25% flatter than regular 12-ga. slugs. Packed in convenient, easy-carrying 5-round boxes. Also available in a reduced recoil loading.

12ga will be great. That is a very heavy projectile. The 10ga is overkill and you might need a chiropractor after shooting it for a while.
With the advent of modern gunpowder and 3'; magnums, a 12 will do anything a 10 will do, with less punishment to the user.
12ga........plenty big and more ammo available in all types. 10ga expensive and ballistics are no better and a little less at range.
Dead is dead and neither will kill a deer deader than the other.
The 12 Gauge won't hurt YOU as much as the 10 gauge will.
