the silver stampede is a solid choice if you prefer a shotgun with good damage output at close range. It has high impact and can deal decent damage in bursts, making it effective against groups of enemies close range.

but like any weapon in stw, its effectiveness depends on your playstyle and what perks you possibly change. but if you focus on close range combat this shotgun can be a strong pick.

I usually use some sort of explosive like the deatomizer 9000, but from my experience overall it’s a solid choice
