Several people have suggested the 00 buckshot, but you might want to look at Death in the Silent Places, by Peter Hathaway Capstick. He used single ought for wounded leopards because more lead fit in a shell, and more muzzle energy could be expelled. The range would usually be less than 30 feet, and his shotgun would ram the shell into the firing pin every pump if the trigger was held down. It is a very good writeup, and the book covers other ammo as well as his great stories.
