[QUOTE="ttown, post: 968890, member: 2114"] Having hunted with bird shot all my life it worries me some will trust their lives to bird shot. It doesn't kill small game well at lot of times esp. at distance. I shot a 10-15 lb mut that was dumped in the country once. It chewed though my double solid shed doors trying to get to my female in heat. At 10 yards (20ga 7 1/2 shot) the dog yelped and ran right through the preacher down the street yard sell, that was unexpected for a dog that size:hot: Yes many are killed by AD discharge at close distance but again would you trust your life with the stopping power on a full grown man moving in the dark? How about someone pumped up on drugs? Man you really want the heat have a home invasion with 2 or 3 people. Could you drop them before your dead? I can see maybe putting first round BS but I have a couple people rushing me I want to drop them, the odds wouldn't be in your favor with Bird shot. [/QUOTE]
