You see the size of those pellets?

Yes I do. My BB gun uses bigger pellets than that, I'm pretty sure.

Boy, I hope you're not suggesting that this is a good idea for self defense. The tiny pellets are already ineffective, but when you throw the rifling of the barrel into the mix you end up with one hot, ineffective mess past about 7 feet. If a guy only has 5 opportunities to protect himself, I'd hope he'd be serious enough about it to use real bullets.

No I was saying it's good that you don't keep them as a self defense load, and that some people actually think they're a good idea.

That's why its in the sixth slot on my speed strip. Its for snakes or a warning to feral animals when fishing or hiking. I have five in and five at in the strip of PDX1 +P for SD.

These are #4 shot which is much bigger than regular shotshells.
