A slug also becomes increasingly inaccurate with distance; out to 300–1,000 yd (270–910 m) or more, with a maximum practical range of approximately 200 yd (180 m). In contrast, centerfire cartridges fired from rifles can easily travel at longer ranges of 1,000 yd (910 m) or more. Shotgun slugs are best suited for use over shorter ranges.
