Discussion Is 12 gauge shotgun the best?

[L'absent]

Can a 12 gauge shotgun aimed at the soft palate miss? Speaking to a medical examiner, he tells me that it is extremely devastating and if aimed in that area, in his opinion, there is no survival. What do you think?

You won't survive but your head will explode. Idk,It's not that appealling in my opinion,a pistol could do it with a hole only.
Please rethink this,it doesnt seem wise <3

Most likely if you aim right without issue. The brain and body can survive some pretty devastating injuries but a 12 gauge to the brain stem is more than sufficient. Shotguns leave a pretty horrific aftermath though so keep that in mind. For some people traumatic or violent suicide methods can increase SI. Plus it's also not a pretty sight for any bystanders or emergency responders or coroners, it can definitely leave innocent people traumatized. Not everyone cares about that kind of thing though.
