Number 4 buck penetration.

I live in a small lot subdivision where the houses are close together.

Interior walls are sheetrock and exterior are stucco.

Would #4 buck be a good ammo selection for my Mossberg 500 pump for home defense?

I'm thinking both for stopping a bad guy and overpennetration if I miss.

Or am I better off with lead bird shot or perhaps something like the BBB steel shot l have in my ammo cabinet.

Or is 00 buck really the only good choice?
 
The real answer for most people is: It depends. I don't care if I go through both sides of my house where I live. That would only happen due to a bad miss on the perp.
