look at his other videos with birdshot. In an apartment I'd recommend large birdshot like #4, #2,or BB. #4 buck will penetrate 3 or 4 walls, especially if you miss, and there's a large chance of missing with a few pellets if there are 28 pellets to begin with. Not worth it in an apartment with thin walls and children everywhere.

[@filianablanxart8305]

With 00B , even with reduced velocities , the .33 pellets still have plenty of energy , and the patterning is the limiting factor . With 4B , with " barely buckshot " .24 pellets , but lots of them , the hit density will remain adequate even farther after the per pellet energy becomes marginal . As to the above concerns about apartment wall penetration , there is good news and bad news . Good news - If you hit the felons with all the pellets , 4B generally, and the low recoil in particular are unlikely to exit . The bad news - You have to make really, really sure not to miss .

The diameter of a 000 pellet is about 9mm, but it only weighs 70 grains, which is a lot less than a typical 9mm Parabellum bullet. Also, it's just a solid lead sphere while handgun bullets intended for self-defense are normally hollow-points. There is no handgun that I know of that has the same ballistics as a single 000 pellet from a 12 gauge. The old .36 caliber Navy Colt revolvers are close in terms of diameter, weight, and type of projectile, but velocity is a lot slower (~1,000 vs. ~1,300 FPS).

I think you score a new record for number of words for seconds during the introduction of the first meat target. 😜 Always a pleasure to see your very interesting video!!!!

Just love the way Paul runs the pump. Proper stuff. No wasted movement. Stroke the pump during or immediately after the recoil. Not when everything settles.
