[QUOTE="ProBusiness, post: 860263, member: 6145"] 12 gauge #00 buckshot, at 15 feet, a 2.5 inch pattern. this shell shoots 9 .32 caliber balls. i think a 3" 12 gauge #00 buckshot shoots 16 balls. BUT, know and remember the pattern is only 2.5 to 3" at 15. feet, about the max distance you would shoot in the house i think, (distance would obviously vary) so the so called 'scatter gun' just point it in the general direction type of talk can get you hurt. u still need to aim that shotgun. The FBI, OSBI, pros, experts, etc say shotgun hands down. personally, i would use the shotgun. your suppose to get behind cover and let the bad guy come to you, don't do looking for him. [/QUOTE]
