I shoot two...a full choke, and a modified, and the patterns on the two are not all that different at 30 yards with buckshot.

Broadside at 30 yards, aiming at the chest, you should be able to put five or so of the nine pellets in the kill zone...and that's a lot of .32 caliber bullets Unlike rifle bullets, of course, they do not blow out the backside, many end up stopping in the hide on the backside, and rarely do they make it all the way thru.

On headshots I find a few rattling around in the brain box if I euro mount them.

Fish on...
