In regards to the concerns brought up by JLW about available 20 ga buckshot loads, what are the preferred available 20 ga loads? The gun doesnt have nor is easily adaptable to changeable chokes, its a shortened bird barrel in cyl bore. Are the soft Foster type slugs as bad about potential barrier/background penetration or overpenetration of intended target as the Brennekes would likely be? This is strictly about civilized areas, in towns, not bears or hunting deer.
Geezer/gimp limitations have visited me earlier in life than I expected, a Remington model 11 20 ga is available for use as a house gun and is fairly soft shooting. What loads seem practical for the use described in such a case?
