Lloyd:
Try stacking "0" buck inside your shot cup for your Saiga. In my "limited" experience with making homemade buckshot rounds, "0" stack 3x inside of a shot cup like a dream.
Makes me wish I would have bought a "0" buckshot mold instead of the #1 that I did.
He certainly stopped doing that to the mans wife.With a shotgun blast to the gut, did he quit screwing with the guy that shot him?

Why does a man with a 7mag never panic buy? Because a man with a 7mag has no need to panic!

LOL this thread really needed that 103rd post, i was starting to hear voices--
*Birdshot!!* *Buckshot!!* *Wabbit season!!* *Duck season!!*
Really, this is silly! Unless an intruder sends you a calling card (bang, crash, beep) the only weapon available will be a pillow, book, pan or tableware. I've often though a small frag genade would be the best HD weapon. On the other hand, my 17 rnd 180 gr. 40SW should suffice. I remember seeing the story told by the woman that emptied her 38 and then reloaded and chased the guy down the street. Never did hit him. Now that is NORMAL.
It worked about perfectly in my book.
He left and won't be back.
The rest of the punk's around, now know that it is a great idea to go screw with someone else.
If you blow someone away, chances are they will hire Gloria or another Bitch like her and you will spend a small fortune trying to get her and all of the prps relatives that think they just hit the lottery, out of your hair.
If I had to shoot someone, I would rather wound someone with something legal that some pasty faced lawyer, would not have a field day with.
No nuclear ammo, no vest piercing, "COP KILLER" ammo and no stuff that I cast or loaded myself.
I guess i have to side more toward if i have to shoot someone I want them shot! I dont want them able to return fire on me or my family. Sure in a perfect world it would be great to stop the threat without killing someone but for the most part you have to keep in mind that if your pulling the trigger its because you fear that that person is going to kill or hurt you or your family. If not you have no bussiness pulling the trigger in the first place. Im not going to loose a minutes sleep over killing someone that has those intentions and could give a rats *** about trying to justify it later in court.
The problem with isolated stories being offered as "proof" is that there is one to prove almost every theory or opinion.
If anyone is interested, I can post links to three different encounters with grizzlies that were stopped in mid charge and killed by bird shot. One killed by a duck hunter, two killed by pheasant hunters.
I can also post a story where a terrorist tried to escape off of a stretcher after having been hit by 2 500 lb. smart bombs.
So is bird shot charge stoppers? Are smart bombs ineffective as fight stoppers? I guess we all have our opinions on those, and I don't think we will change our opinions based on what is posted here.
I have always been told it would be better to kill someone, not just for tactical reasons, but that you don't want to end up paying their medical bills the rest of their life after you wound them. I really don't want to kill someone and will go to great lengths to avoid it, but my home is my castle and if you invade my securty net that far i will react with deadly force, and the State of Montana agrees with me.
