ok its much easier to find when you know what you are talking about. Go ahead and begin the bashing I can take it. All I know is the 00 buck works if someone breaks into my house still learning all the other.

On a different note. For home defense give this a look. Should be good for hog also.

Hope you guys have shot them #2 BUCKSHOT on paper TURKEY target to see how they pattern. Not the best load for turkeys, imho.
Most guys shoot #5, #6' or #7 turkey loads
I shoot Winchester HV turkey loads in 3 1/2" #6

Buckshot are made for , well, deer...Turkey loads are made for turkeys

Not trying to tell yall what to do, just trying to help, and wish yall the best...Good luck to yall

Edit^^

For home defense, I use 2 3/4" #4 buckshot. I figure I can cover the whole entire hallway and room before a perp can turn around and say "OH S^&* "
