[QUOTE="magna19, post: 3840596, member: 24646"] His comment about easier to hit with has merit. I remember back when it was legal to hunt spring turkey with a rifle. About 90% of the time taking a rifle I was wishing I had the shotgun. Most home defense scenarios a shotgun is adequate, other scenarios you might wish you had all the rifle firepower plus some. One thing to remember using a shotgun in some scenarios like close range the spread of pellets does not spread much. One exception is using a rifled choke tube or rifled shotgun barrel. Rifled choke tube/barrels will spread pellets greatly. [/QUOTE]
