If your shotgun barrel isnt rifled and your not using a slug. Stick to smoothbore and buckshot. Even 9 shot gives a 10 inch pattern at 50 feet.
Shotguns are great home defense weapons. I have a 410 for the wife when Im not home. Anyone can shoot a 410. Knowing her though she would probably grab the 44. She is a natural when it comes to firearms even though she doesnt practice often enough.
