I am not a fan of "shoot to wound" - no LEO would recommend that. Not saying that the birdshot won't hurt or incapacitate, but if you shoot to incapacitate, then any lawyer will eat you alive for that action because it calls into question the necessity of your actions. If lethal force is justified, then make it lethal...not some "F-him up" injury-causing shot to the head.
Further, head shots are not recommended. Smaller, more quickly moving target than center mass....you're far more likely to miss.
Shoot for center mass, with something that will cause immediate vital organ damage. Anything less is asking for failure to stop the threat, or returned fire, or a court-room disaster later.
