A spreader load is sold by Orvis. The shot inside the shell is not round like regular shot. Its fed thru a press and squashed into sort of a hockey puck shape. The result is quite predictable. No range and complete scatter right out of the barrel. Im not kidding either, you will hit everything floor to ceiling at the far end of a room 20 long. The load will not go thru the wall and hurt anyone in any adjoining living space. IOW, you wont accidentally shoot your kids in the next room with handgun loads going thru the wall. One time I was taking (civilian) shotgun training, and I mistakenly kept my "rifled slug" barrel on the shotgun when using buckshot. The rifling caused the shot pattern to resemble a large doughnut.

You have to be a cop. Only a cop could include buckshot and dounuts in the same sentence!
