At ten (10) feet a 12Ga Shot gun acts just loke a 0.75 Cal Rifle. While it will not cut the target in hald, it can remove most of an arm and completely destroy a hip.

One shot should do the job.

I would never question that a 12 gage does the job nicely.

I just question if it is the best tool for home defense for the average home owner.

My personal choice is a Colt 1911 with Cor-bon safety slugs.

Hits hard and doesn’t penetrate walls.

I can point and shoot out to 20 yards and hit a man sized target. It’s all I need.
