It really depends on your training and level of skill.
There are a variety of other factors that are being completely ignored also, rural vs. urban, whether you run dogs, cameras, alarms, outdoor motion detection/trip lines, magnetic driveway sensors and many other things.
If someone is in my house, they will have had to bypass or evade everything on that list, as well as drive past hundreds of easier targets and cut 2 gates and come 15 cattle guards down a country road.
It does happen to the Boer, so nobody is completely "safe", but the debate between 8 and 12 gauge as posted by OP is an academic circlejerk. If someone is in your house you fucked up in dozens of ways already and your choice of gauge isn't going to solve all those mistakes
