My first Mossberg was a 20G 500 Persuader. I loved it. I found a couple boxes of Federal #4, but that was it. I had problems, back in the early 2000s finding decent defensive ammo, which was the intent of the shotgun I got. I found some specialty 20G ammo, and ordered a bunch but it was backordered for almost a year. I eventually traded the 20G away for a 12G and can find a variety of 12G anywhere, from specified defensive ammo, standard 00 buckshot, slugs, rubber buckshot, low recoil 00 buck, etc. I hope 20G variety has gotten better. But my petite wife is intimidated enough by the 12G she won't even touch it, so I got here a .410 Mossberg 500E, which is no slouch. Thanks to the popularity of the Taurus Judge, there is a bunch of defensive .410 out there, that seems to do really well out of a 18 inch barrel. I like 20G, but the lack of available, diverse ammo did it in for me. I eventually remembered I had ordered the specialty ammo, and called my credit card company who filed a dispute, and that prompted the company to ship it at least. Ended up selling it to my brother, but he rarely shoots, so it should last him a lifetime.What is best for home defense in 20 gauge? Try to find 20 gauge buckshot, not many choices.
