I was wondering. I've heard/read that some load both 00 buck and slugs in their gun. One or two others have gone with different mixes as well. So I got to thinking about what I would want loaded in mine.
I am picking up a Mossberg Field/Security combo tomorrow. I was thinking I want either 00 buck or #1 lead in a 2 3/4" load, but I'm not sure if I want a slug in there also or if I should mix the 00 buck with the #1 shot, or as someone mentioned elsewhere, the first being bird shot (???).
So what do you load in your HD/SD shotgun and if you mix loads how do you mix them? Do you have any preferences as to what goes in first? Please include your reasoning behind your choices to help this newcomer out. Thanks.
Also, if you have a buttstock carrier, do you keep something other than what you have loaded in your shotgun in it? If you do, why?
