What do ya'll think a 12 gauge Goose Gun loaded with Remington Shur Shot Heavy Dove would do on a intruder in your house. The round is chambered in 2 3/4, with the cartridge producing 1255 FPS, and punching with 1 1/8oz shot #6?

Ideas or views on this round going off on a intruder less than 20yards?
Knowing that buck shot would probably be more effective but if only having this round what do you think the effects of human flesh and skin would be?
On anyone from 7-15yards from you pull of the trigger? The weapon it will be discharging out of is a Marlin model 550 12gauge and I think the barrel is at least 42 inches
