Shot Guns and Judge and Governor self defense 12 gauge 20 gauge 410 Bore
Personally, I have an 1100 Remington AND an 870 AND a Mossie 500 20 for my wife and have access to a .410 Siaga and 410 Bore Governor and Taurus Judge. Were I knowingly going into a fight I'd reach for the 1100 with 15 pellet 00 or 8 pellet 0000 four aught ultrabuck buckshot. However, my blushing bride is 5' and can barely lift the 1100. I have the 20 for her, but after today I would not hesitate for a second to let her use the Siaga or S&W Governor /Taurus Judge. Feel free to watch the videos so you can see with your own eyes what a .410 can do when properly loaded.

Self Defense ranges are seldom over 50 feet. If you're shooting at somebody at a distance more than that you better have a REAL good reason or at the minimum a dirtbag defense attorney will want to sue you on behalf of the crackhead you killed. Worse, the DA may not like you and decide to prosecute. True enough buckshot will lose half
its energy in 50 yards but many deer get killed at that distance. the 410 Bore buckshot in the videos weighs almost 80 grains each and expanded from .375 to .432", about the same as a .44 magnum when it exits the barrel. That is 410 2-1/2" Four Aught Ultra Buck Buckshot.
Had an excellent article about the federal .410 ammo for the Judge and it had a velocity of 850 ft/s at the muzzle with a 4" group at 25 feet and 436 Ft Lbs energy from Judge. The 2 1/2 inch ammo had 4 OOO buckshot at 73 gr each . That is better than other reports that I have seen and is best 000 buckshot available besides Paraclese 0000 buckshot four aught 410 ultra buck buckshot.
