pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "With the current state of slug shotguns, you do want to go for as much range as possible while maintaining as high of handling as possible. Fluted barrel or hammer-forged rifling are your best options for barrels. Accurized is the only choice as for whatever reason Gunnora’s Axe doesn’t get access to assault mag. Threat detector and opening shot are the S tier combo to get. Iron reach and moving target are decent substitutes as long as you have the handling to back it up." Recommended MW - Range.
