Asa far as effectiveness is concerned most men hit by a rifled slug or 5 or 6 buckshot is out of actiom. IF you can hist then the shotgun is effective. What I am discussing is at what ranges can you expect to get hits with buckshot or rifled slugs. That determines how effective the shotgun is in actual combat use.
