Looking for two versions of ammo for my recently purchase 12 GA Beretta. One for self-defense and one for target practice. Any info would be helpful.

John, for indoor home protection I recommend a low recoil #4 or 00 Buck Shot load : They pattern tighter than the high velocity stuff. With that said, reduced recoil loads are hard to find at this time so the best that Buds has for home defense is : budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/411559297/rio+royal+buck+%234+buck+12ga+27+pellet+5+pack+2+3%2f4 or budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/411559296/rio+royal+buck+%234+buck+12ga+21+pellet+5+pack+2+3%2f4 ----------------- I highly recommend practicing with what you will be potentially defending your life with. This is the only way to know point of aim and pattern characteristics. Cheers and stay safe!
