I agree, this would be my approach.AndyC wrote:I have run anything from #4 buck (.24 cal) to 00 buck (.33 cal) as well as slugs (I love having slugs handy) - but it's important to pattern whatever loads you purchase and see how they spread when pushed through your barrel/choke at various distances.
For patterning, I usually use a regular B27 style target - my personal goal is to keep all the pellets inside the width of either the head or the 9-ring, so I'm testing to find the maximum distance possible with that specific shotgun/load.
