Excellent work, 9Three...!

Are you auditioning for the next episode of 'Myth-Busters'?!

This definitely shows the limitations of buckshot, which simply must be known before venturing forth so-loaded. It also shows how effective it can be in the 30yd range.

Couple of points: now that the 80yd myth is busted, it would be useful to see the 25yd vs 30yd vs 35yd results, which is the range these things are most likely to be useful. Also, I believe full choke is a mistake with 00 or SG. Tighter groups are more likely with 1/2 choke, or 3/4 at most, going by past publications which I remember but cannot quote.

Again, well done. Thanks for going to the trouble. Hard data is preferable to opinion every time.
