    One I have run into repeatedly is common among female shooters.  That leaning back shoulder blades behind your ass stance women seem to gravitate towards naturally. You can shoot a .22 just fine like that. It's going to work like shit for centerfire, especially if shooting more than one shot in a row. Exactly zero of it translates to shooting and moving. 

    I used to similarly caution Boy Scouts when shifting from a .22 rifle....to a 20 or 12 gauge shotgun.  Those were the two merit badges they worked on during summer camp, and the recoil is significantly different.  Without proper preparation, they are going to hurt themselves.

    Shotgun slugs and buckshot.

    .22 Rimfire and .223 can be used for some other game (Coyote, Fox, Woodchuck) - the rules are very strict and precise.  

    .223's not a great caliber for Deer anyway.

    Another thing to remember (in NJ) - If you are hunting with slugs, your shotgun MUST have rifle-type sights installed.  Just a bead at the muzzle (standard shotgun configuration) is not legal for slug hunting.  You can just go with the bead at the muzzle for buckshot.

    It sounds like you're coming in with hunting experience from another state.  New Jersey hunting is a little different.  You REALLY need to read the 2020 Hunting and Trapping digest - it covers all of these topics.  You can find it in most places that sell hunting licenses, or read it on-line here:  https://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/pdf/2020/dighnt20.pdf

    It’s my home state.  I have family and friends there.  I plan on buying a mobile/manufactured home in NH to play hockey on frozen ponds and shoot competitions.  
     

    I was born in NJ, too, as well as have many family and friends still there.

    I left a year ago, and I'm much happier in the Poconos.  Don't move back to NJ.

    Steve Sweeney will be our next Governor unless a really charismatic and qualified Republican runs and rides the Trump wave!

    Yup.  He wanted it bad, but the North Jersey contingent wanted Murph as guv to push him onto the national stage. Murph has failed miserably, so their current hope is for a Biden win and a cabinet position for Murph; which clears the way for Sweeney in 21.

    My LGS and range is selling Blazer 9mm for $14 a box and always has it in stock!  A formal NJ CLEO who refuses to cheat his patrons!

    Unfortunately that's not a sustainable business model.  In the current market, your LGS will be unable to replenish stock anywhere near that price.

    "Best" inexpensive, all-around/do-anything shotgun:

    Maverick 88 Combo.  Basically it's a no-frills Mossberg 500 made in Texas; many parts,especially barrels, interchange with the mossy 500.  Biggest difference is location of the safety (trigger guard vs tang on the 500).  With this you can hunt almost anything, shoot trap/skeet/sporting clays, and have it ready to repel boarders.

     "Detailed Description:   A Winning Combo for Hunting and Home Defense at an Affordable Price Point
    Reliability and versatility at and affordable price, the Mossberg Maverick 88 Field and Security Combo gives you peace of mind and a sporting gun in the same package.

    I don't even understand what their obligation is to litigate this. The stuff they are selling is legal from where they are selling it. NJ sues and subpeonas them? They should tell NJ to go crap in their hat. I'd hope a free state would never allow their citizens to be extradited to a scumhole like NJ. 

    Grewal and Co want to ruin them for their political gain.  Simpler for them to cut n run...
