They're aight for a shotgun.

Trash

Fun enough to shoot through a cheap 22.

They'll never cycle in a semi auto, so a revolver is basically required.

when I was 5 my redneck neighbors in AZ would take me shooting with them
I was sulking because all the other guys got to shoot handguns
redneck neighbor takes out his SA cowboy revolver .45
>loads it with rat shot
>shoot it
>im the only one special enough to shoot the bigges handgun with special laser ammo bullets
god bless that man. he also carved wooden guns for all of us and made mine special so it could shoot ninja stars in the loading breech.
anyways every time I see shot shells for handguns it reminds me of his kindness.

Capable of carpenter bee and tiny rattler genocide but very little else

Good for rats and children

This, but why not just use, i don't know, a shotgun with buckshot for home defence?

good for snek

useless in a rifled barrel and only useful at very short ranges.

Thank god my father didn't know about those when I was a kid, the old fuck would've shot me for fun way too many times with it.
God I miss the old fuck.

Because most interior walls aren't strong by any means and buckshot typically rips right through them.
Use a handgun like a normie.

Who said anything about home defense, ya autist?

They shoot shot. A lot of folks carry them for snakes, I just shoot the snake with a regular bullet if I need to use a handgun.

But 00 Buck pellets have effectively the same effect on interior walls as the same number of cheap 9mm FMJ

I always stagger these in my snub 357 with two hollowpoints and a wadcutter. I call it "shock and awe." Blind them with the snake shot, cut a hole in them, fill it with pellets, then shoot the pelvis. Works alright on dogs and bears, first shot is a good warning.

5.56 penetrates less than both, loaded properly. Just a thought.

>shooting bears with ratshot

Can I have your stuff when you die?

i used to load them up in this old ruger .22 i had and shoot at mice in my garage it was a great time

It just spooks black bears.

>get rushed by bear
>first round on deck is ratshot
>die

Can I have your stuff when you die?

anyone remember the madman from a few months ago who was posting .50 cal ratshot?

Shot pistol cartridges aren't for defense you fucking walnut, they're weak as shit and scatter like mad.

They're for shooting pests and stuff.

00 Buck penetrates about the same in interior walls as 9mm Luger. Use 5.56mm or 5.45mm

>ability to pull trigger repeatedly is a feature of modern pistols
well you don't have any balls so I guess you could keep mine

>you don't do stupid stuff no bear guide or hunter would recommend?
>lol no balls XDXD

Better that evolution takes you sooner rather than later.

I've shot bears before. It's not my fault you listen to a bunch of hippy nature trail guides and fudds. Try going /out/ some time instead of watching youtube shill videos about hiking and bear mace.

I hope you have cool stuff, it's annoying when people die and only have stupid stuff.

I can fucking guarantee you that if you let off a round of ratshot towards a black bear, he'd piss himself and run for his life.

They are VERY timid animals, not like grizzlies, you genuinely can just use a harsh tone of voice or yell at a black bear and he'll leave.

I have plenty of experience with black bears, but it's a stupid concept, still.

If you're doing it for the noise, just shoot an actual cartridge at the ground. If you're trying to cause pain, throw a rock or use bear spray. And he's double retarded because his bear defense setup not only includes two ratshot rounds but wadcutters as well. Not semi-wadcutters, but wadcutters.

All in all, his know-it-all rebuttals are funny, but if he ever meets the wrong bear, all I want is his stuff. I'm fleshing out my mancave and reloading area and I hope he has what I need.

Oh, well, yeah, if he tries that shit on a brown bear, it's going to rape him like Leonardo DiCaprio.

I have killed so many rattlesnakes with .22 magnum snakeshot, good stuff

The wrong black bear will even fuck him up.

Black bear attacks are more common than brown bear attacks due to distribution and certain regions have some pretty uppity black bears.

I've had curious young males follow me and me meet them on a trail loop, if you do that in the wrong scenario, you can damn sure spark an attack. Same with when cubs are afoot.

Such bullshit.
>5.56 FMJ penetrates 3/8" mild steel at 100 yards.
>9mm and 00 buck shot don't even leave a dent at 25 feet.
Stop perpetuating fuddlore.

>loaded properly

>when loaded properly
>hurr FMJ

Also, do you even know what fuddlore is? The last thing a fudd would advocate is 5.56 for home defense.

Or did you just hop on this train recently, with no real knowledge of board culture and therefore a fudd is just anybody you disagree with?

Sell your guns, man.

fun results with a PCC or PC SBR (Scorpion Evo and MPX... Beretta cx4) when you want to mess with friends about missing targets.

Good for snakes, rats, and rabbits at close range.

Or just for plinking I guess. Either way, fun and useful in the right circumstances

Lmao look at this edgy coward

So it's useless in the only barrel option it comes in while being used at the range it's intended to be used at

kinda shit for a handgun... anything under 28 gauge seems kinda pointless to me, except buckshot in .410

do you work in the sporting goods section of wal mart, by chance?
