yakdung 2,926 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 I own the 12G flavor because more punch and availability of ammo variety. Yakdung Link to post Share on other sites
TR Young 175 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 12 ga. You can tailor your rounds to be light or as heavy hitting as you please. That a 12 ga shell can handle, of course. Link to post Share on other sites
Jangles 2 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 12ga. It's all about the power. Link to post Share on other sites
corbin 621 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 While I can appreciate the lighter kick of the 20 ga or .410, for the availability of ammo and the diversity of power levels available, I'd go with 12 ga, no question. The .410 is handy for snakes and small vermin, or small birds I guess. However, unless you're wanting to have a taxidermist stuff the snake or bird, a 12 ga with a light load will kill them just as dead. As I mentioned, availability of the 12 ga round is another plus. I know that a lot of places carry some of the other sizes as well, but when was the last time you saw a store carry 20 ga and not 12? I've seen the opposite though, granted not a whole lot. The diversity of the 12 ga ammo "seals the deal" for me. Think of all that specialty ammo, if that's something you'd like to try. While I've never messed with flechette rounds, dragon's breath rounds, beanbag rounds or some of the other more exotic stuff, I know that I personally have only seen them available in 12 ga. Just my 2 cents. Corbin Link to post Share on other sites
raidersfan_5544 57 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I would have to go with the 12ga MORE power, MORE options for parts and ammo, MORE gun = MORE fun!!!

dtromblee 0 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I must tip my hat to 1911. I agree the 12 is the way to go. Nothing beats the warhammer. Shit just the looks scare people off and if that aint enough, well just let her scream. DT Link to post Share on other sites

RobRez 1,895 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 12 ga. Otherwise I can sell you a bag of gravel to throw If you want the 20 or 410. A 410 is pretty much just for grouse, which a rock will do just as well. I don't even know why they still make 20. I suppose folks are intimidated by a 12, but I weigh 150 soaking wet and I have no problems with a 12, or my 44 mag. Link to post Share on other sites

I gotta disagree. I was shooting at a parking sign (no not stolen, or an actual parking sign) and it was the same thickness of a "real" parking sign. The birdshot just dented it up and blew all the paint off of it. This was Federal birdshot (the Walmart bulk-pack). That was my experience anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
corbin 621 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Yeah, unless you've got the muzzle ON the sheet metal (which I STRONGLY discourage you from trying), you're not likely to penetrate it with birdshot. I had a stainless steel 20ga piece of metal (signal mirror) in my right breast pocket when I got shot through my right palm with a shotgun back during my Army days. It was birdshot, but my hand was ON the muzzle when it went off, so the wad and everything when through my hand. Most of the pellets made it out the back of my wrist and entered into my chest/armpit area. That mirror took several over them and dented pretty bad, but it didn't let them penetrate. I'll see if I can find it and post a pic. Corbin Link to post Share on other sites

If you do slugs, it will ruin everything else except 3" 00 buck. I shot 60 slugs and 100 rounds of Wally World Federal today. After the slugs, the bird shot is so fucking lame. The 12 gauge is the only shot gun I will ever own. Edited March 15, 2009 by Bounce12 Link to post Share on other sites
dannyfantasy2000 68 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 If you're gonna have a magazine fed, semi-automatic shotgun, you better have a 12 gauge. If you want a tiny round, go buy a rifle. Link to post Share on other sites
