Standard is always good, slugs are powerfull but you need to aim for the chest, flechettes need 2 shots in general but can kill from far away and applies heavy bleed and dragonbreath is really annoying but needs multiple shots to kill. I think penny shots are the only ones that are not really worth it bercause of the rng and no pen at all.

Slugs are literally the best and only ammo you should ever take.
It's cheaper than a nitro and still one shots.

In order from best to worst:
-Slugs: no RNG, good aim is greatly rewarded. Rival, slate, and C&K all much better with slugs. Exceptional on handcannons, as it negates their terrible spread.
-Buckshot: classic shotgun. Still needs good aim. Romero and specter shine with buck.
-Flechette: trade one-shot potential for 20m two shot potential+bleed. Best on terminus levering or specter.
-Pennyshot: go from ~16 pellets to 5. More damage, less reliability. Can kill bosses and AI faster, but slot machine in pvp past 7m. Ok option for half buck half penny Romero.
-Dragonsbreathe: stupidly slow velocity and can only kill point blank. Burns bars but so does killing them. Only for memes or challenges. Romero or specter seem to have most reliable ignites.

i dont play shootgun alot but i sink it depents on the use of it and the shootgun it self
romero and rival when u need just a good blast and have time to reload
specter and the winfields when u have many ''friends'' and no time

Depends on the shotgun itself, and what you are using it for.

Slugs is better at max oneshot range. Buckshot is better close since jumpshotting is possible and it actually kills with armshots while slugs requires chest hits. Both are great in their own way, test both to see what you prefer. Ignore the other options, they are pretty bad in comparison.
