Yep. I use the same gun in a 12 guage.

I only shoot from 3-20 yards with buckshot. Only walk and stalk. No treestand.

Ok, thanks. What size buckshot would be best? Most of the ones I've seen are about the size of the larger one in your avatar, give or take a few pounds...

I suggest if you buy a shotgun, buy a few different brands and sizes of buckshot and shoot them on paper thru different choke tubes to see how they pattern at different yardages. I will GUARANTEE you 95% of people never do this, and have no idea how their guns are actually shooting. 3" #1Buck thru a Mod choke tube is the most consistent load for me
