Why not use a rifle for the "open country" shots ?
I do carry my AR-15 in my truck, but I am road hunting. Some people get pretty bitter about shooting a rifle from the road. Which, is illegal. Usually, when road hunting, I will go into the field before I shoot, making it legal. We can shoot shotgun from across public roads as long as it is not a slug. So, I must use pellets. BTW, I don't keep the furs. We have an over population of coyotes. Kill a cat or coyote, save uncountable amounts of pheasants, turkeys, and deer. They are worth like $5 anyways. I was just wondering if there was a better pellet size/choke combo.
