Do you prefer a shotgun for HD?

The remington 3" magnum 00 buck shells actually produce a pretty star  / cross pattern consistently.  I'm a fan :D.

One of my eventual goals was to figure out how to load my own shells to produce said pattern heh.

I prefer whatever gun is handy.  :D

A more serious answer: No, a shotgun is not my first choice for HD.  IMO, a shotgun is a better weapon for an AO where you are not concerned about friendlies.

With that said, I pattern all of my shotguns so I know where my pellets are flying.  I have witnesses who have seen me shoot the head off of a pheasant.

 Back about the mountain lion.

   the guy from game and parks was on KFAB radio this morning.  He stated, that the Game and Parks has a rule, any mountain lion cought in a city is to be destroyed, not relocated. it has lost its fear of people and would never be returned to the wild, ( well as wild as Nebraska is)
