All armor got set at AV 1 for T2k v2.2, which was one of the things I wasn't happy about.
The top line for each shotgun is with slug, and the bottom two lines are for buckshot. All of the shotguns have an incorrect ROF on the bottom line except the CAW - they should be SA.
Buckshot damage is explained on page 204. At short range, the pattern is considered dense enough that it's treated as a single shot. At medium range, it's treated as a 10-round burst, with each hit dealing 1 die of damage (note that it's reduced for recoil and range, so at most 7 shot will hit because of the 3-die penalty for medium range).
I use very slightly different AVs, but in part that's because I
tweaked Pen based on the tables in FF&S, which have a couple places where increased bullet energy leads to
decreased armor penetration.
