While I am nervous about the prospect of remodeling or rebuilding the house after shooting buckshot, it sure beats the alternative.

You may only get time for one shot. Don't fnck around.
Your theory is one of a badly flawed tactical plan that borders on "I will shoot to wound him," instead of inflicting grievous bodily harm. If you pull a trigger, it should be to neutralize the threat as quickly as possible. It isn't as if you are trying to cure a headache with a half an aspirin and then take another if the migraine doesn't go away.
If any of your concerns are for your house (not your house in combination with your family behind a component of your house), you should be rethinking your priorities, the ones you have may get someone hurt or killed with that hesitation, and I don't mean the BG.
If your daughter is in a
no-fire slice of the pie for your home defense tactics or practices, it should affect how you counter a threat in your home, and requires modifications of your behavior and practice drills, your preparation of your home and the people in it, and the actual actions taken by you and your family under stress to overcome that situational possibility.
