My reason for wanting them is the only shotgun I have is 20 ga. and these "less lethal" shells would be for four legged creatures.
I live very rural in the middle of a forest. I've lived here for 16 years now and have lots of bear, mountain lion and just about any creature you can think of. Other than a few minor incidences, they leave me alone and I do the same.
This year the bears for some reason are especially thick and a rogue sow and her cub have been tearing things up around here. I keep all trash inside but she's torn up a couple of chairs, my BBQ and other things.
The first night she came, I hit her with a powerful spotlight and she and her cub lit off but she's been coming back every night.
She's a troublemaker for sure and I would just love to pump a couple of stinging less lethal rounds into her butt to make sure she doesn't come back.
If she was a lone male, I would have already shot it, (I have a rifle that can do it), but I don't want to orphan the cub.
