The Roundtable / Re: Buck Shot
« Last post by K Frame on Today at 08:01:08 AM »No. 4 buck has been my round of choice for home defense since I bought my home in 1993.
27 .24-caliber pellets is going to ruin the hell out of someone's day at household distance.
If I do ever need something heavier, there's the 5 rounds of 00 buck in the carrier. It's not the standard load, it's got an extra layer of 00 pellets, for a total payload of 12. Done with a roll crimp and card overwad.

« Last post by dogmush on Today at 07:51:50 AM »I suspect Egypt is thinking that it looks like the longer this goes on, the worse Israel looks on the international stage, and the less support they have in the west. The Arab world would LOVE to see Israel's support in the West dry up, or even see a good decrease.
Egypt gives zero *expletive deleted*s if a couple million Palestinians have to die to damage Israel, and even better if they do it to themselves.

Likely the better choice for anything within shotgun range. FPV drones are pretty darn fragile.

We figured 4 buck would probably have the best combination of range, shot pattern, and power.I'll stick with #4 birdshot for non-military UAVs. Denser patterns.

« Last post by AmbulanceDriver on Today at 12:59:23 AM »I run 00 federal flite control in my HD 870. 6 rounds of that and the last round in the pipe is a 3" magnum slug. Side saddle carries 5 more 00 and another slug. I really like how the buck patterns out of my 870 with the flite control wad and unless there's a really compelling reason I likely won't switch to the #1 buck.
