The 10 foot patterns shown are very similar to the 30 ones I have gotten using a Remington 514 smoothbore, and especially one with a Routledge bore. Ones out of a Mossberg Targo 42T (which also has a screw on rifled tube for regular ammo) and a Krinko semi auto are a bit more open.
The older crimp type shotshells pattern better in a smoothbore than the CCI capsule types.
“The older crimp type shotshells pattern better in a smoothbore than the CCI capsule types.”
SO TRUE! But they are hard to find.......
I’ve had the crimp type shells get stuck in a ruger 10-22 so I stick to the cci shotshells. They work well on rattlesnakes.
