I like fireball ammo, personally.

Okay, just kidding. I use 00......or would if I had any guns or ammo.
12 guage with 00buck for me too. Proped up in the corner beside my dresser.
Yep - if I owned any shotguns I would use 00.
Here in Brazil it is very typical for homes to be fortified. My house has a 3 meter wall around it topped with electric fence. The wall is mandated by law and most homes in my neighborhood have electric fencing as well. In the yard I have two enthusiastic pit bulls, and three little barky-dogs.
The house has bars on the windows and an alarm on all windows and doors. The fence is also alarmed, if anything touches it the house alarm goes off.
Inside I have a solid wood security door set in a hardwood frame at the top of the stairs that has a deadbolt lock. At night after the house alarm is turned on I lock that door when we go to bed so that if anyone gets into the house they won't be able to get to the family.
Backing up that wooden door is me with my two .38 revolvers. Anyone trying to get through that door will be shot.
It sounds like alot, and it is if taken out of context, but here such is life and this is all regarded as completely normal. Mac
Gosh Mac ! Is that Brazil, WV you live in????
Wow Mac
After living that secured, don't you feel kind of vulnerable when going to sleep back here in the states?
ANY load at arms length will most like be fatal. Consider the possibility of over penetration before you choose. If you have loved ones behind walls, you may want to stick with heavy "small game" loads. Bird shot wounds at point-blank range are commonly referred to as "rat holes". The chances of surviving such a blast are almost non-existent, given a center mass hit. GlaserQuote:

Golden Retriever, Rat Terrier, and a baseball bat. Seems to work. There is a back-up plan though. :D
I like my Rotti,she will let you in but not out(watched a grown man wet himself after trying to grab some jeep parts in the back yard,he yelled hey buddy want to get youre dog so I can leave? I said nope, you walked youreself onto my property you can walk youreself out too). God bless anyone who should try to break in while my 3 year old is home.He is at the age where he thinks its funny to punch ya squair in the nuts.
Ken, I agree with you disposal site.But they do dig holes just about every day in my back yard.
viewing nice quiet neighbors from my deck.
