>>2664375> Every shell is only useful on game of a very specific sizeCan use a large variety of shells suitable for ANY game!
> Every shell is only useful at a specific range> Every shell weighs over twice as much as .308, 4X as much as 223 or 9mm, and 11X as much as 22LRUp to 12 times the projectile mass as ,223!
> Every shell is water permeable and fragileAlmost ALL modern shotshells are weather resistance enough to hunt waterfowl, and many fully waterproof options are available or easy to DIY.
> Has no specific functional advantage other than hitting a moving target. Animals don't move in any predictable arc that you can lead unless they're being chased by dogs. Literally inferior to a handgun for most real life applications.Hitting a moving target and being able to safely shoot into the sky are really important for hunting animals in the trees and in the sky. Also many birds fly in straight lines
> Virtually no reliable mag fed weapons available, most specimens manually operated tube mag guns straight out of the 1800sMag fed shotguns are worse then tube fed for anything shotguns are good at. Simple pup action designs are cheap, reliable, easy to clean, and work with any ammo.
