Shotgun still needs to be aimed and will have a tight grouping in close quarters, so that idea is out - that is unless you have only an illegal 5" barrel or something. THen it sprays everywhere forward. 18" barrel, and well, you get the idea.
On your choise of ammo, change to buck 01 instead of 00. It will do the same job on whomever is attacking you, but it will also be unlikely to kill your neighbors, unlike 00. 00 penetrates more than a .45. 01 does not.
Just my two cents. If you need to see for yourself, visit The Box of Truth. They put 01 and 00 through the test. If I remember correctly, the 00 penetrated a massive 12 walls.
