RE: Shotgun Deer

I am only aloud to use buckshot where I hunt and with a well placed shot I have killed deer out to 75 yards. I have heard of farther but I just think tha beyond that it is not a for sure kill.

RE: Shotgun Deer

I have killed them with 3" 000 at 90 yards running and a little farther standing but like I said earlier its all in knowing your gun and how it will shoot.. Now for the 10 Gauge I have well.. its plain out awsome, I just wish they would make 000 for it!!

Joe I think if you need that third shot he would probably be out of buckshot range and you' d be better off with a slug. Just my 2 cents.

Well my 1100' s semi automatic so I was thinking along the lines that your first shot is probably your best, then the next two will be running and be boomboom and I usually hunt in thick stuff so buckshot is way better.
