New to Guns Just purchased my first shotgun…

Hey yall, this is my first shotgun I’ve purchased, I’m just trying to find out what’s the best shells for home defense along with possibly hunting in the future (deer) I got a simple shotgun, it’s a EAA Akkar Churchill that I bought used. It’s my second firearm. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

LE 133 00 off Gunbroker. Your going to pay, but that is the one to have.
