my main gun that i have for self /home/ SHTF occassions is a Mossberg 500 20 ga wooden stock, 18" persuader barrel.
i have in stock 400 rounds of winchester and federal 7 1/2 shot, some 000 buckshot, and some slugs. oh, and some steel shot, some in small game shot size and some that are #2 shot.
my question is what kind of results can i get if i have to use the 7 1/2" shot 2 3/4" shells in the following senarios:
- at 10 yards with heavy winter clothes on the target
- at twenty yards, same clothing
- thirty yards sam clothing.
with a 20 ga shotgun, should i be aiming at the face/head area or will center mass work ok? should i get more of the size 2 steel shot? stick with smaller lead? what?
thank you! -Eric
