In video games the old-timey double-barrel shotgun is usually the best.

Can you explain what a semi-auto shotgun is for ?
Usually people use shotguns for hunting, so is this for mowing down an entire flock of birds or decimating an entire pack of wild bore ?

Say you're beset upon by a squadron of rhinoceri or something like that. You want more than just a couple shots, and the high caliber slugs of a shotgun will enable you to better break through the thick hides. Alternating between slugs and buckshot could also be useful for rapidly hitting many targets.

Anyone have any recs?

Yes, the good ol rhino squadron.
>the thick hides
A shotgun prolly just piss off a rhino.

Nah, a 12 gauge slug will probably penetrate 'em.
