Why Shotguns?

[jdmidwest]

Never liked picking pellets out of game animals.  I use a Ruger 10/22 with a scope.  Hollow point to the head.  Grandpa used to scold me all of the time.  I ruined the best part of the squirrel for him, the head.

I was always a fair shot with the shotgun, but prefer the rifle or pistol for most of my shooting.

Best .22 I ever had was a Single Shot. Used Shorts in it Coon Hunting. 

Dumb ol me sold it for $5.

If you're hunting with a group, or with dogs, then you're unlikely to get many good shots with a rifle/pistol.     

Success favors the guy with the scattergun.

And the safety aspect of that 1 projectile.
