5.        What is the difference between birdshot, buckshot and slugs?

Birdshot ammo contains small metal spheres within the shotgun shell, which separate and spread when the gun is fired. This ammo is used to hunt birds or small animals.

Buckshot ammo is similar to birdshot, but it contains larger metal pellets, which have a bigger impact on the target. This type of ammo is typically used for hunting larger animals, like deer.

Slugs are much more powerful than birdshot ammo and also more powerful than buckshot ammo. They’re typically used to hunt large animals, which can often be killed with one shot. Slugs come in different varieties depending on the materials they’re made out of, including wad, wax, cut shell, foster, steel and more. The amount of damage they have on the target depends on the material that the tip is made out of.
