Only when you need aiming. Which is mostly never. Roe deer hunting in Scandinavia or Turkey hunting in the US might be examples of exceptions.

A "bullet" is the term used for a rifle cartridge projectile. The Winchester Model 37 is a shotgun versus a rifle, and as such, it primarily was made to use shot shells (hundreds of small lead pellets) used for hunting game birds and waterfowl. Bert H.
No. There is Rifle Shooting, Shotgun Shooting, Wilderness Survival, Nature, and Mammal Study, but no hunting. Hunting and trapping are not approved activities for Boy Scouts but are allowed for Venturers.
Pellets or slugs. shotguns usually shoot shot or pellets, but you can shoot slugs. in Indiana we use a shotgun to hunt deer and use shotgun slugs, better to use a barrel with no choke in it. cylinder bore preferred.

Ducks are hunted with a shotgun. The speed and size of a duck would make it virtually impossible to hit with a single bullet or pellet, when in flight. A shotgun uses lots of tiny pellets that spread out in area from the gun, giving the hunter more chance of hitting the target, these tiny pellets also have less of a destructive effect on the birds, which are usually eaten.
