-Reduced Spread Decay to 9 from 15.
-Increased Spread Per Shot back to the vanilla value of 22 from 6. Mostly a cosmetic change.

THE BALANCE UPDATE
-Incresed number of pellets to 8 from 7.
-Reduced damage per pellet to 34 from 37.
-Increased PenetrationPower to 74 from 30.

These edits are going to make the weapon far more distinct and well-balanced alongside the Autoshotgun. Might tweak the spread in future updates. For those curious, please read the updated description for more information on these edits.

UPDATE:
Reduced accuracy slightly, to improve horde-busting.
Increased deploy duration (time after switching to a weapon before it can shoot) from 0.42 seconds to 0.6.
Tweaked range.

Tweaked damage and pellet number, leaving total damage per shot the same. More damage per pellet, but less pellets for a more genuine shotgun experience.

Fixed a description issue.

Yet further tweaks to accuracy/spread.

Further tweaks to accuracy.

Slightly reduced accuracy. Improved the description.

Fixed an error in the description stating a change to the ammo type that is no longer applicable. Thanks to "ShadowX & Falerin" for letting me know of this most shameful error. No really, sorry for any confusion. :)

I promise this is the last spread tweak. At least for now.
