Depends upon where you live; my family lives way out in the country. Lots of varmints both four legged and two legged and the 12ga pump with eight rounds is our first line of defense. Double ought mix with slugs.

When we lived ‘way out in the country’, I found a 870 in 20 gauge very useful in dealing with varmints without legs. Quite effective on rattlesnakes, etc.
