What Shotgun Shells to stock up on.
OK, my SHTF/Zombie/Home Defense shotgun is almost done. Now, if I was going to stock up on a bunch of ammo for it, what should I go with.
I won't hunt with it, except maybe occasionally for food if things ever go badly in this country. (not like that is going to happen)
I want a stock of good self defense ammo since that will be the primary purpose of this thing. What do you guys think would be best. Slugs? 00 Buck? Number 4 Buck. Number 7 bird shot?
I prefer not to buy a variety of ammo. Just one (Why I have 3 AK's and not other rifles mixed in). So, if I'm only buying one... which should it be?
I have a Remington Magnum Express 870. In case you wanted to know.The American Revolution would never have happened with gun control....

Re: What Shotgun Shells to stock up on.
I just want to point out that you are talking about severely limiting the potential of a firearm that is wildly successful as a result of the ability to use a multitude of ammunition with no modifications.
p.s.

Yeah, I know. But if you had to stock up on one. What would it be. I may keep a couple boxes of bird shot for hunting. But if I had to travel with the thing. What would I want in it.

Slugs and 00 Buck.
That's as close to "one" as I would narrow it down to, if you're talking about stopping humans intent on doing you harm.

Re: What Shotgun Shells to stock up on.
If I had to pick 1, it would be something like 1 shot or 2 shot. Big enough to put a hurtin' on an intruder and take large game, and (maybe) small enough to take small game.

Re: What Shotgun Shells to stock up on.
Ya i think id go slightly bigger like 1 or 2 also because of the shorter barrel and no choke(no choke right) i doubt birdshot would work great at any kind of distance
