Answer 2

12 Ga. it has the most choice

Answer 3

i always thought a 410 is the best for this, not to much power to mess up the groves in the barrel, and not explode at the fireing pin.

Answer 4

with the new advances in guns, powders, and slugs, 20 guage is a be a good gun...

12 guage is the traditional slug gun, and it is tried and true.

both come in 2.75 inch... 20 won't rattle your teeth, loosen the fillings and take your shoulder apart, as much.

Answer 5

A 12 gauge would probably be the best but if you want more power you can get a 10 gauge and if you want even more you can get the classic 8 gauge elephant hunting gun.

Answer 6

i have always used a 20 gauge. i guess just personal opinion. you can buy rifled slug barrels and it helps on accuracy

Answer 7

12 ga hands down

Answer 8

probably 12 ga. you can take out a variety of animals with it

Answer 9

I would have to go with the .12 gauge
