The blast alone would be enough to knock your average man down.

Only if they were off balance. Anything fired that has enough force to "knock them down" would knock down the guy shooting it. Newton's law. For every force there is an equal and opposite force.

But here is some information on penetration:

The Box O' Truth #3 - The Shotgun Meets the Box O' Truth - Page 1

According to them nothing smaller that 0 Buck will adequately penetrate to stop a BG.
