Only reason I brought it up the idea is because pugs has a NID 10 mag that someone bored the chokes out of .

And I was looking at pattern testing on another site with the 10 ga 3.5" using tss shot and I think they was getting 500 hits in a 30" circle at 40 yards with a #9 tss . From what I've read it's about the weight of a #5 lead shot size . Nasty stuff but I would be hesitant to put that through any barrel I owned haha .

The 10 ga browning pump I had patterned steel T shot evenly at 40 yards with a light modified choke . I used 7.5 lead shot in the RST 2 7/8 loads . Found it a bit lacking at times for squirrels so next time I may go with #5 or #4 .
