have told me that a cylinder bore 410 had a longer killing range than a cylinder bore 12 gauge. I never tested it, but I take it from your computations they were wrong.


With all due respect to experience and past experimenters, I am skeptical of data pre-Jones. His results clearly show that "eye ball integration" of one to a few patterns is unlikely to produce a true result. In past experimenters defense, the computational tools were simply not available. Shotgun patterns are, by nature, complex and difficult to properly analyze. Jones has gifted us the tools. We all need to use them.
