more reason to go 5.56 instead of shot or slugs

slugs pack a wallop. even if you can stop it from penetrating, you have to stop it from moving

see my other comment in this thread about slugs or shot as part of a communal collective presentation of face. ideally your crew has mostly 5.56 with one person with slugs. they all have their use, but you should be defaulting to 5.56

personally i lust after the .338 so the semi-auto shotty also speaks to me. i understand the practicality of having something that you can move, aim, and afford to shoot, but something about the big boom booms just draws me.
