Instead of nerfing shotguns, Buff primaries. Shotguns are not as good as they used to be, For you year 2 players there was a infamous shottie known as felwinters lie with 2x the range of matador 64(Note that's an exaggeration) The reason that shotguns are so good, is that primaries aren't doing nearly enough damage to take out a shotgun pusher as fast as they can be, by buffing instead of nerfing, you will make it more balanced as primaries will take out pushers restoring the competitive scene to skilled players who can kill with something other then their max range matador 64
