Sg also known as OO Buckshot in the USA consists of a number of lead balls of approx 8mm calibre. usually 9 of these in a 12 gauge shotgun shell case.
Thats like 9 x 9mm submachine gun projectiles - fires at once at the same target. Which is why the shotgun is renowned for its close up, one shot fight stopping power.
You can even load OO and smaller shot combined for a lethal spread. Slugs are possible too, which is one heavy approx 1 to 1.25 ounce bullet shaped lead projectile that will put anything down it hits. More of a sledge hammer than penetration, so armour is protection is minimized.
