Depo shot and pull out method?

Chances of getting pregnant with depo and pull out? I know these aren't 100% but condoms are boring. We don't have any stds and can handle a baby if it happens. I'm just interested in how effective these two are?

Like you say, no contraception is 100% - and I've heard the pulling out method can be a bit risky due to sperm in pre-cum getting into the vagina etc. It may be a good idea to explore different types of condoms, or once you've spoken to your healthcare professional evaluate the risks and benefits of your depo injection.
