[QUOTE="TerryP, post: 4021890, member: 1564"] I like shotguns.. I like artillery too, fortunately we can choose what stick fits the job best. I’ve trained like some here have with all types of shotguns from bird/field types to police/tactical shotguns. Shot some 3 gun years ago. In fights you’ll likely be running slugs and buckshot to cover your bases best. As odd as it sounds to some I ran slugs up front and would “add” 00buck as distance allowed. I never wanted to come up unable to reach the target. I would “buckshot select” as the target distance got under 20 yards or so. I’m not recoil sensitive but I found out that shooting these types of rounds through shotguns in training got to you a good bit as you worked around walls, automobiles etc. and while off balance and from varying shooting positions you’d get the recoil effects.. I know this isn’t really what we’re talking about here but I just have found the carbine to be so more user friendly across the course. I do agree that they are good stoppers. [/QUOTE]
