On the subject of magnum small bores, I'm no expert, but here is what Parker said:
" It is no advantage to place a large charge of shot in a small bore, as it only increases the column of shot in depth, but not in width. The result of this is that the shot get jammed and great friction is caused in passing out of the barrel. If large quantities of shot are to be used, the proper way is to use a larger calibre of gun."
