I use 12 gauge 870s, but the 20 gauge 870 YE here does a nice job with 3 buck. It's NOT a light kicker though. Weighing 6 lbs, 2 oz means a fair amount of kick.

It does handle like an M1 carbine, quick and nimble.

IMO, 20 gauge is adequate for home defense, and may be close to ideal for some folks. As always, expertise is the key.....
