Argument at work, for home defense which would your rather have or would be better in terms of performance.
Neighbors are not an issue.
870 is Police Model with 00 buck with some slugs in the speedfeed stock. (Holds 6)
Marlin is Cowboy .357 loaded with 125gr Hollow Points. (holds 10 rounds)
Did a quick search and could not find what I was looking for, but here are some of the issues that came up.
Foot pounds of energy going into the target? Ease of shooting? Follow up shoots, faster? Ability of reloading quicker? Perception? (what will the jury think?, we slapped that guy that brought it up, but he did go to law school) Ability to practice? (cost of ammo, etc). Penetrating walls? ( I know it all goes three rooms, lol). Yeah I know I'm in the rifle area, just getting opinions. Will ask in shotgun section as well.
