How much does shotgun angle matter?

[DarkMilk]

If I have a 12 gauge 00 buckshot, as long as the barrel is pointed in the mouth, does the angle really matter? like between 15 to 60 degrees, I want to say that shotguns are so powerful that as long as you hit the brain, even if you "miss" the brainstem, the shockwave would instantly knock you out, and the damage/blood loss would be so severe that there is no chance of survival.

I wouldn't want to risk it.
You see those videos of people that blew their faces or half their head off.
Brutal.

Here's a thread

Most of you know that shooting yourself isn't exactly rocket science. But unfortunately even this method is not fool proof and if done improperly can leave you much worse off than before. So I'm going to show you all the no bullshit methods to shoot yourself so none of you wind up effectively...

Yeah, but the difference with those is that they aim under the chin at vertical and miss the brain entirely. I'm talking about aim in the mouth, and ensuring you do hit the brain, but just not necessarily the brain STEM. Make sense? It's kinda hard for me to get a good idea of where the barrel is pointing on my shotgun, I am certain I can get near or above the brainstem, but I am afraid of aiming too low and moving slightly such that I aim under it. Basically, if I hit above the brain stem and go through the middle of the brain, surely it would still be perceived as instant death right?

In theory in makes sense.
Mr. Ronnie did it under the chin and it still worked for him. So in mouth upwards instead of lower makes sense . Technically.

I would set up a mirror and do it from the side to be sure of your angle
