The same argument can be made for bear protection. When that bear is charging you, you don't have the luxury of clearing a jam.
Also, a .44 mag is lighter than carrying a sawed off, pistol gripped 12g shotgun with slugs. You can wear the .44 in a cross draw chest rig and have it ready to go with serious speed in a bear encounter.
A revolver at home is smaller, lighter and easier to use when your adrenaline is pumping.
Also, don't quote me on this...but the last time I was at the store, shotgun rounds were significantly more expensive. It seems unless your reloading your own, it might cost more to take a shotgun to the range to practice with.

I wonder how the court could prove your slugs were reloaded?
This would make me wary of even owning reloading equipment, as the investigators would see it and call your ammo into question?
It certainly raises a very, very good issue.
