I should have been more descriptive in saving that the shot in my opinion would be more deformed after it was leaving the wad, which would be by this time out of the barrel.
Stan, I can believe what Tom had written after his experiment, BUT if memory serves me, I recall reading about the shot in the bottom of the shell over-taking the shot in front of it. Actually almost like pushing it out of the way. I wish I had copied that article or remembered where I saw it. This was not too long ago and it might have been from either Batha or Gil Ash and I'm leading more to Ash.
