I've read alot about using 00 buckshot, but I definitely think a slug would do the trick.

A slug would for sure do the trick, but also keep in mind that a slug is a huge projectile so there is less spread going around. I personally would go with 00 buckshot since it is powerful enough to kill and has the added insurance of more spread damage as the pellets spread out after being expelled from the barrel at 1250+ fps (depending on the load).
Sorry I got to bump this thead due to I have a question (same question so I rather bump this than make a new thread).
Using Kel-Tec KSG shotgun would a slug better or 00 buckshot? I also heard they have 000 size buckshot too? I heard 000 size it bigger but it doesn't spread out more than 00 ones.
If I aim at my temple, wouldn't the 00 buckshot would do more of the trick since it spread out my whole brain? Slug is stronger and heavier and wouldn't that be why it would do the job more when explode my brain out?
I can't chose between slug of 00, money is not the problem, I just want to make sure when I shot I be dead.
For some reason I still lean towards slug.

eta: so I read this from quora, so what does it means?
[[ Depending upon the type of choke, it takes over 15 feet before the shot begins to disperse. E.G. at 10 yds, full choke, the pattern is about 10″, cylinder choke it is about 20″.
At point blank range, there will barely be any spread at all to the shot. ]]
So 00 buck won't disperse since you aim directly at your temple instead of 15 feet? Confuse. So at point range, 00 buck are not far enough to spread the bellets?

When I was researching this method about a year ago, I came to the conclusion that hollow-point slugs are the best bet. I'm not a gun person, but I know they're also called "expanding bullets" and create a ton of tissue damage.
I heard about hollowpoint slug too, but I not sure if it "legal" for regular people to own it here in my state. I call my gunshop and ask tomorrow, due to I not sure if it legal for citizen to own.
I asked, and they said hollowpoint is legal in my stage, great. But then they said hollow point slug, it expand more, but penetrate LESS.
So I don't know when blow to the temple, do you need the penetration more or the expand more? I guess the expand more right? If need "more" penetration, then they said a regular slug works.
Regular slug, expand less, penetrate more.
Hollow point, expand more, penetrate Less.

You need expansion, otherwise it goes straight through with not as much damage. Temple is a no-no though, need to be in the mouth @ a 10 degree angle to the horizontal.
Buckshot, evidence proves it will cause a major damage. Have you seen images or videos showing the damages try a Google search you will have visual proof for what your looking for. Do you mind me asking, your location because I wanted shot gun as means to exit, I dont own any guns.
