    I don't care what some people say about birdshot being ineffective. I wouldn't want to get shot by it, especially after seeing what it did to a metal door. From these results, I'd use the #4 birdshot for defense. Thank you for this informative video.

    The Winchester PDX shot.. look at that pattern. Now picture that pattern hitting somebody in center mass. God damn. I have several boxes of PDX ammo that I've had for quite some time now. I have practice with it over the years at different distances. It stays very well grouped for about 25 yards. After that it spreads out real real fast. Right now in my ar12 I have a slug load out and I have a magnum buckshot load out. Five of each per mag. From defense, typically I would use either my 9 mm or my Mossberg 590. The 590 has low recoil buckshot in it. Where I live there's no safe direction to really shoot at an intruder and miss.

    I'm using #8 for my HD 12 gauge. My apartment is small, and there are people living in every direction, so a miss with a slug or buckshot might not be the best option for that situation. I know some might say, "Well don't miss, practice more, blah...blah...blah". The fact and probability is that it could happen, especially under extreme duress. I'd rather mitigate any collateral damage, whether mine or someone else's. So, #8 should do the job. I'm looking at it like, who wants to get shot? Who wants broken bones, like ribs, or a broken sternum, clavicle, arm, etc.? I'm assuming broken bones will ruin the day of anyone. Also, getting hit dead center in the chest with a round or two of #8 will be devastating at close ranges of 7-10 feet, and for psychological reasons should end the fight. If it doesn't there's a few more left. I'm guessing one or two will do. There's a few left for more than one intruder as well. Imagine, if Mike Tyson could get one clean shot on you in his prime? Would he put your lights out in one punch? Probably, and a shotgun blast with #8 is 10 fold (not mathematically figured), nonetheless it will put a BG down. As a side note to anyone assuming I'm trying to just wound, no I will be going for lethal results, and a #8 should incapacitate the threat lethally. The pellets are held tightly in the wad at close ranges, so it will be a large mass of approximately 500 grains. A 500 grain hunk of lead isn't something to sneeze at.

      Well said sir. I also use #8 for home defense. Interior walls and doors are not as thick or strong as that steel exterior door he was shooting at. Most of the time the sound of racking a round in a 12 gauge shotgun is enough to deter an intruder.

    I recently read and watched No Country for Old Men. In particular in the film adaptation, Moss shoots at Chigurh using a 12 gauge shotgun with 00 buckshot through a hotel room door. The distance can't be more than 10 feet. How Moss doesn't just totally blow him away makes no sense.
