For home defense I load buck and slugs even in my 20 gage.

#4 resides in the defender, due to the fact that the bedrooms are laid out across the hall...

otherwise, 00 and slugs would be in mine as well...

It would be my choice to use #4 Buck for home defense. Slugs or 00 would easily go through walls and possibly hit the neighbors, your children, pets, etc. The same goes for high powered rifles.

At close range, even 7 1/2 trap loads would be a great home defense round and extremely lethal at such close range.
