For home defense, #7 birdshot. At home defense ranges it hits like a slug, yet doesn’t penetrate too many interior walls.

I have hear that the problem with birdshot is the lack of penetration — especially the penetration of heavy denim or coats. Sure you knock them back due to the blast of the round, but if you have no penetration you just leave a big bruise at center-mass.
