I am not a shotgunner and I am not questioning the choices of those who are. I just want to understand.
It's pretty simple, my preference is; 9- .30 cal. pellets in Heart Lung area (Federal Flight Control) at 20 yds., vs, 3 or 4 pellets in Heart Lung area, 2 misses on target and 3 peripheral hits (other/"bargain" 00 Buck) at 20 yds.
A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.
