That's a complex question. Bapple (who has forgotten more about gun issues than I will ever know) will come in and say that birdshot is a no go. However, bird shot (like number 6) will hit like a solid mass of lead at household ranges - 12 to 15 feet at most, right? Yet, it will not rip through interior walls and kill the kids, dog and neighbors. But it is a compromise choice and not without risk.
I think that with buckshot - you're making a choice - fewer, yet larger, projectiles, or more, yet smaller, projectiles. In 12 gauge, 00 is devastating at close range.
