Why?

I guess in states where rifles are legal, the state can put the screws to traditional shotgun hunters.

Buckshot isn't leagle in many areas (Not leage in Wisc. either) becuase it woulds a lot of animals. A well placed slug is more effective. A lot of peaple beleive they can take shots through thick brush or at deer they couldn't hit with a single slug and will some how do better by haveing a pattern of pellets.
