A strange person

I'm thinking of using my 12GA with heavy #6 turkey loads for woodchucks when I get the chance. Where I live, it is common to see them at the edges of overgrown fields and clear-cuts, and quick, running shots at 50 yards or less are the norm. Most people hunt them on farms with small-bore "varmint" rifles, but I'm curious if anyone else here (especially easterners like me) hunts them with shotguns. I'm also kinda just out to prove that you can hunt anything with just a shotgun in the East. Any success?
