Not true at all. You have to aim with a shotgun.

Plus buckshot is more likely to pass through walls and still have plenty of energy to do damage on the other side. Not that I disagree with shotguns for home defense, but with others in the house better know what’s behind your target.

Clearing the streets post hurricane Andrew, I can tell you from first hand experience, the racking of 12 gauge rounds makes the roaches scurry.
