At very close ranges, I think the opponents of bird shot would be really surprised at the damage it does. a load of bird shot from 8 feet can destroy a person's skull. a suicide by shotgun leaves a cored out empty shell. I'll post pics maybe.
Can you hit a 350 pound lardbucket in the chest at 35 feet and mortally wound him? whole different question.
My choice is still and always will be a .357 carbine instead of a standard bird hunting shotgun. A police style combat shotgun would at least be worth considering.
btw, our home is close to 3k square feet, and the longest possible range of fire is still only 25 feet or so.
