RE: What happened to buckshot?
Weapons are tools only...
The best tool for killing deer when being run by deer dogs through the swamps and woods of the South is buckshot...
Just as with a rifle, the gun must be tried with several different brands to see which patterns the best and shots should be kept within the limits of the weapon...Buckshot is deadly if used properly...All weapons wound if used improperly, this is more of a reflection of the user, not the projectile...
