Among the largest bore of shotguns that can be fired off of the shoulder, the 12 gauge shotgun has been dominating close-in shooting situations for well over 100 years. It is also among the cheapest of shotguns to buy ammunition for, since it accounts for over half of the shotgun ammunition and guns sold yearly in the United States. Also, many people purchase Mossberg shotgun accessories online.
Using buckshot with this caliber, it is a near certainty that a hit to the thoracic cavity with all pieces of shot will rapidly incapacitate the target. Most people shot with handguns survive : most people shot with shotguns do not. |
