A friend of mine bought that gun for possibly blasting grouse and bear backup. We tried to pattern it with 7/8's at 10yrds and not one pellet hit paper due to the rifling. Not sure what happens with buckshot - but I suggest testing this gun with your intended load before you buy. "box of truth" did a review on it as well - theboxotruth.com In the hand the gun feels great and the latest model handles 3" .410 shells unlike the original with only 2 1/2. PS: He bought the longer barrel version because it was the only one available at the time. I'd definitely go for the shorter one over the long version.

better to have a .45 auto with, I think CCI or speer shotshells...one of them are encapsulated and exit the bore without touching the rifling as the rifling will wipe out the pattern....they will be worthless unless you are touching your target. unless you shoot the face...the shot will not "disable" again, unless you are touching your target..... that's a bit too close for me since a guy with a knife will still have enough life left to filet your ribcage.
