Buckshot

Buckshot is a common type of ammunition which can be found anywhere, usually at farms. Like the slug, it is used by the Double Barrel, Lever Action, and Novuh shotguns. Buckshot fires twelve pellets in a spread, making them effective at short range.

They can take out most zombies with one blast at short range, granting a definite kill upon any type of zombie at close range with a headshot. Unlike the slugs, they cannot penetrate through zombies. When firing buckshots at short range, it's damage is massive. Even outdoing the Timberwolf in damage, albeit at a very short range.
