Shotguns
The doorway argument
Short answer
Close. Loud. A magnum of manners. Don't bring it to a field and call it a DMR.
Also: shotgun
How it works
Shotguns want range they do not have. Indoor, they end discussions. Slugs vs shot is a different feel — no pellet chart here.
What to do
Doorways, barns, panic. Not a ridge.
Don't
Don't hip-fire one across Elektro as a personality.
