Last night I was telling my roommate that I need to get some 00 buck for some home defense. Somehow or another we came to bump heads about the nature of buckshot and birdshot. He claims that 00 buck can be used for deer. Hence the difference between the words "buckshot" and "birdshot."
Now I don't necessarily disagree that this might be the reason for the lingo, but I've never heard of it. I certainly wouldn't use 00 buck for deer. He was making a distinction between the 00 buck and a slug.
What is the origin of this lingo?
