You would need to use bird shot or finer if you shoot them as they run, otherwise you could get arrested for "attempted manslaughter" or something like that.
No course salt. You have to assume that EVERY thug is armed. If you just lightly wound them, or make them angry, you could be very sorry. Also, you'll have no time to reload with anything stronger if need be.
You need power that will penetrate a heavy leather jacket or jeans or even a car door and keep going. If I have to shoot, I want the neighbors to hear it loud & clear... and I want the perp to not have ability to respond.
They are lucky I'm loaded with heavy turkey / light buckshot.
I was talked out of loading with 00-buck and slugs.
A 3” shell for a 12-gauge delivers 30 of the #4 buckshot pellets at 1,200 ft/second.
If it still moves, another 30 pellets are a click away from happening.

Coarse salt works better

I'm sure emergency rooms hate fixing 60 holes.
