I get better groups better groups with the 000buck. I think the PDX is good, but the small pellet shot really scatters more than I like. If the bad guy was all alone with no one close the PDX would be great. But I only look at the .410 rounds as an inside the home round only.

Hey bud, hickok45 awesome youtuber.

The Judge - YouTube

Watch it, great overview of 410 handgun ammo. It's a judge but it'll do for this purpose.

My choice is 000 Buck, but not for self defense. My Governor, like The Judge I had prior, is used as a yard / critter control gun.......

If I were to use the Governor in a self defense role I would opt for the 250 gr. Speer Gold Dot HP's in .45 Colt.....
