On my long range #8s patterns I was putting 400+ in the 10 at 40. Was some where around 60%+ in the 10" at that range. There was only a couple pellets outside the 20" if I remember correctly. I only shot a couple turkeys (also some geese) with it and it definitely destroyed their heads.

In the 20 gauges I’ve loaded for, I seen a tighter core with the 5/8oz of 8s over 1oz of 9s. Some guns more than others but all I’ve shot do have tighter/hotter cores.
