I have an idea. How about a mix between 0.70 and 0.58?
Yay, everyone's happy.

a mix would be good, the one in .70 was way too long ranged. it is fine if you can hit people at long range, just make it so it is not a one hit kill all the way, then it just becomes a crutch for bad players, who can't already hit the enormous head

Shotguns are short ranged, the person shouldn't get hurt from long distance.

After doing a little research, here is what I found: http://guns.wikia.com/wiki/Remington_870
Putin, the max effective range of a Remington 870 (model of gun used in AoS) shotgun is 25 yards buckshot or 75-100 yards slug.
OK????

^ Ok ... Lets say it shoots 75-100 yards (slug bullets) not 25 yards (buckshot) ? Would make the shotty a bit more use-able?

Well, if the fog is truly 75 yards, then NO. Seriously, the spread in the game will make it ineffective at that range.

Yeah, in a few minutes of looking up modern day combat shotguns, not a single site states it goes close to that, not even with slugs.

at any rate,
The buckshot typically used in a combat shotgun spreads out to a greater or lesser degree depending on the barrel choke, and can be effective at ranges as far as 70 m (75 yards)


Now lets assume a 120 block fog distance and a block=2 feet.
2x120=240 ft fog distance
240/3=80 yards
Even with max range it doesnt go past fog range (only going about 15/16ths of the way there, which is pretty decent)

However 70m/75yards isnt the range of the Remington 870, the shotgun the gun is based off of.
25 yards (buckshot), 75-100 yards (slug)

25/80=31% distance to fog.

slug bullets? That essentially turns it into a rifle.

A soldier is like 1.85m(it can variate but that's a mid size for a men) he is 3 block's height that means 1.85m / 3 = 63.3 cm
Then if fog is 120 blocks that would be 120 * 63.3 = 7596cm ( 75.96m)

Then Slug-bullets would easily make 75m ( And for gameplay it should be half or even a bit lower )

And BuckShoot 22m ( 22m / 75m = 3.4 so it's use able only 1/3 the way to fog )

All in all It should be like half of 0.70 xD

Since I'm all about realism, I think it should be 75 yd, it'z true range.
