I just picked up a box of the federal handgun 000 buckshot it looks better than the pdx1. Just can't imagine a bg being able to take 5 rds of buckshot.
Keep in mind that the ballistics performance of the 000 buckshot out of a Judge or S&W Governor will be vastly inferior then the same round out of a real shotgun. A good .410 load would not be a bad one for home defense if it were fired out of a long gun. That same .410 load fired through a 2.5" Judge would not be nearly as effective.

Also, you are assuming you will hit the bad guy (if there is only one) with all 5 rounds of .410. Good luck with that after being rudely awakened from sleep, scared and firing into the half-dark.
