Shoot a perp at close to contact ranges with anything, he will be unable to tell if it's a Magnum or a light trap load. The lighter loads are easier on you, and shot to shot recovery(in the case of multiple assailants) is faster.
Say you use a field load of #6 shot. At close range it's acting like a solid bullet, of 75 caliber,moving between 1100 and 1300 FPS.On impact, it acts like one of those high priced Glaser Safety slugs.
