A shotgun is a firearm intended to project shot instead of bullets. The shot will spread and make it mush easier to kill a bird which the main use of a shotgun. It turns out they are also very devastating in battle with heaver shot. Bird shot is small and anti-personell shot is large, .34 caliber vrs say .3 caliber. there are 9 shot pellets in a 00 buckshot battle load and probably 200 #7 shot in a bird load.The current most popular shotgun used by hunters is Benelli 828U & Ethos Series.To know more visit EuroOptic
