I have no doubt that at home defense ranges bird shot could work.
I also feel that if you have to use bird shot , then something in the #6 shot to turkey and or goose loads would be best.
And before someone says : "If bird shot is so bad at defense , let me shoot you with it." no I have no desire to be shot with anything , 'cause being shot is never good.
I also understand that no gun or load is 100% guaranteed to work as intended all the time.
I'm just asking why use something that could work , rather than something that was designed for the job at hand?
Like anything , these are just my thoughts and in the end I would say :
"Use what you shoot best be it ammo or a gun."
