I am trying to go deer hunting. I small game hunt and ready to upgrade. I have a 22 and a 870 20 gauge magnum. I can hunt behind my house, tight woods, were my shot wouldn't be to long. Will the 20 gauge do the job? I have the magnum and can shoot 3" shells. Most people load up a slug and follow with buckshot. What should I shoot, slugs or buckshot? Also could you recommend some good slugs that would stop them in their tracks. And about how far could I shoot? I know I need to buy some and practice my shots, but wondering if it was worth it. When the funds get up I might buy a 12 gauge 870 or a good deer rifle.
