I never experience leading with any of the slug types. Here's a Lee 1oz @1330fps on a my chrony at 2 metres.
The Lyman 525 gr ( pellet shape) slugs make a whistling sound and never hit anything that I aim at. Round ball 480gr are more accurate than they should be, roughly equal to the Lee 1 oz at a modest 50 metres, at anything more from my smooth bore guns, is a crap shoot.
