Default Ha, most shooters won't use a shotgun

They work very well within their limits. You don't usually take 200 yard shots, and most hunters don't get more than 40 or 50 yard shots.

Had a customer who said he had a shotgun to hunt deer. My ears perked up. This is a hunter, I said to myself. He had family land that was overgrown. Perfect for shotguns.
We went with #4 Buck, a favorite of mine.
Saw him a couple of weeks later. How'd you do? Down like a rock he told me. He was going to hunt for an allowed second deer that weekend.
How I wished I was hunting private land and had the chance for a buckshot shotgun deer.
Of course, I had public land and the overpowering 35 Remington. Down like a rock.

Many hunters don't get to see that.
