This thread should be called....

what DISTANCE can you ethically shoot a deer with buckshot from? I mean, there is a reason that police departments carry shotguns with buckshot - it is simply one of the most effective short distance weapons available. From close range, nothing - man or deer - survives a hit with typical buckshot - not for any meaningful amount of time. For what it is worth, when I hunted with dogs as a kid, we never shot more than 30-40 yards.
