      Apparently not well enough. There’s enough videos online of people trying and failing to shoot at drones that it’s a sort of well-proven fact that until a drone is VERY close, like 30-40 feet is my guess, it’s out of buckshot range. The war in Ukraine has really shown what countermeasures work and what don’t.

        I was thinking about 100ft before the pellets lose enough energy for the drone’s fans to change trajectory up close. Would be interested to see how trap shooters with deer slugs fair.
