Don, you should've started another thread with that post, thirteen of them in fact!
We have discussed many of them in previous threads and I have decided that some of the above statements are correct only when stated exactly as they are, but that they convey a different meaning to the average joe (read, non-engineer). A slight change in the wording changes the entire scope of meaning, i.e. "Multiple pellet strikes are required to break a clay target". That is false only because the author proved that he COULD break a clay target at times with one single pellet. It does NOT mean that one pellet will always break a clay target, that one pellet will probably break a clay target, or even that one pellet stands a good chance of breaking a clay target. I have, and can at any time, walk out on a clays course and pick up a sackful of clay targets that have as many as four pellet holes through them, that are otherwise unbroken. That particular statement is useless to most clay target shooters, IMO.
This is just an example of how vague several of Jones' statements are regarding patterns and their effect(s), and their causes.
