[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1477512, member: 2736"] Just to place things in perspective, The type of shotgun and it's dependability is important but it must be fed good ammo also to be effective. My choice for dangerous game (Like Bear) would be 000 Buck shot because of the number of .36 caliber hits with one shot. The chances of hitting a vital area with 10 - 70.6 grain 36 cal bullets are much better, and with 5 rounds that's 50 chances compared to 5. No doubt the slug has more energy but in a panic situation chances of a less than lethal hit are much greater. I have killed charging Hogs with a shotgun and it was very effective at stopping a very ****ed of animal intent on hurting me in there tracks. So my recommendation is to pick the best weapon for your needs and feed it the best ammo. Your life may depend on it. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
