Sure, I can see a carefully aimed shot at the head. I can see it missing, hitting the wall, his leg, his shoulder and only pissing him off as he takes your shotgun away in the ensuing struggle.

As gun owners, we can envision all sorts of awesome optimum scenarios for self defense. The only one you're going to get is the one you don't suspect.

Don't mess around with less-than-lethal.
