I'd use a little lighter load than 00 Buck. Those things will go through lots of walls. A heavy bird shot will not penetrate too many walls, but will knock down a perp.

For hand guns, look at the magtech rounds. They are P+ and use small amounts of shot contained in a plastic casing. I use these in my very small pistols since they are under powered (25 and 32 ACP).

For the rest, I like PMC Starfire or Corbon JHP. Both have very good reputations for proper expansion. You will need to pratice a bit with Corbon, since they have a bit more recoil than Standard FMJs.
