I still don't get the point of seeing how many pellets you can put in a circle but that's just me. You'd have just as dead of a turkey with half that many pellets in the head. How many of you guys that put up patterns like this take shots longer than 40yds? I'm just wondering because to me, increasing range would be the only reason to strive for these type of numbers. I'd hate to hit low, you'd be having hevi shot soup.
