I have said many times on here my primary gun is a Mossie 12 gauge 9 shot, loaded to first fire 5 00 buck and then 4 slugs.

Bears and moose are very probable up here. So I sure as heck trust slugs Vs 223 for (some outside use). Lets say I have a reason to go out armed with a long gun and its a rouge bear, my MO is to empty the 5 OO buck shooting mostly for the face area and then put slugs in the bears boiler room if still needed.

I learned to shoot skeet with pump guns and learned early on to fire and pump basically as a continues motion. I could use the buck fast and have the nastier slugs up real fast if needed.

The Mossie is a house gun as we are rural, way away from the population centers and LEO patrols could easily be 20 minuets or more assuming we could get a message out. (no cell service, and if our ll phone is down for any reason we are on our own!
As said its a house gun but very comforting if going outside so armed!
