If the shot column is still very small, then how can you blow someone in half with it at 10-20'? Or do you consider a shot column that covers the width of a torso to be very small? And if you do consider that very small, wouldn't you still need for the shot to penetrate most of the way through the torso? I ask because you said "regardless of shot size" but low mass projectiles penetrate much less than higher mass projectiles. So how would you blow something in half with a small shot column of shot that doesn't penetrate through the torso?

Or is my internet sarcasm meter broken?
