Hello folks new here. I'm a newbie on shotguns. My question is about balancing over penetration(or lack of) and stopping power. Also being able to fit an extra shell in my mossberg 500 magazine so here's the load I'm thinking

B&P 2 1/2" high pheasant 6shot.

I live in Ohio thin walls neighbors house is about 30 feet from mine. Am I way off here. ? Figure #4buck in the side saddle just incase ...thoughts please ?
