You nailed it Jimmy. Pattern density all day long. I patterned test my 28 bore recently with 3/4 & full chokes 21 gram lead. Well impressed with the pattern destiny considering the light payload.
Steel and bismuth #6 lack penetration past 35 yards on duck and pheasant when shot at 1250 fps...a dense pattern of #6 means eating a lot of steel or bismuth if the shot is lethal...why not shoot #3 bismuth at the same speed and aim tight and fully penetrate the bird with 1 and 1/8 and not cripple
Thank you for that information helps a lot. I’m brand new to the bird game. Haven’t even patterned my shotgun yet, but I did order one of your chokes.
