Even so, I doubt it would be very effective. Modern tank guns are smoothbore (despite this being a counter-development) in order to be able to use long fin-stabilized rounds capable of better penetration, so the original rifled Jagdtiger gun would not have the same performance.
Not quite challenger 2 has a rifled barreled gun and can still fire finned projectiles.
