We use 2 3/4" lightfields with a 1 oz. slug. The exit holes are around 2- 2 1/2" in diameter, through the lungs.
I can not imagine what 1 3/8 oz would do.
Oh we started out using the 3" lightfields, but found out with the slower 2 3/4" we can sight them in dead on at 25 yards and only be 1" high at 50 yards. For hunting over bait this is point and shoot, we do noth have to consider trajecctory.
Oh, I have never lost a deer hit with a Lightfield.

Will consider that when I feel my grandson is old enough to hunt and if he wants to. He just turned 10 two weeks ago. I have set up two stands that are big enough for two people to sit in. Will see how he feels after I drop one next year.

Good luck next season. I've shot the 12ga slugs and the 20ga slugs and TO ME they do the same job. one does it with less recoil.
to me comparing th 20 and 12 is like comparin a 30-06 and a .308. very close in results, one punches less. :D.
