It's amazing some of the loads they have come up with. One I would like to try just for giggles is the HESH round. Kind of reminds me of those WWII german sniper explosive rounds. Just for novelty use I mean not defense. Skip to 3:22 mark to see it on cinder block, 6:20 mark for ballistic head (gruesomeness warning).The 12 gauge is so versatile, especially if you reload. You can make light loads that shoot more like a 16 or 20 gauge or have a chambering that is much more like a 10 gauge. Options for defensive loads are available by about 20 to 1 compared to a 20 gauge. Of course ultimately, to each their own.
Also for break barrel guns, adapters can be an option for SHTF. Most calibers available including black powder. Some adapters can be rifled 5",8", 11?" longThe 12 gauge is so versatile, especially if you reload.
