This was with #7 shot. Look at the pellet count for 195024 and you see only 1 entry which would mean both barrels had the same pellet count using #8 shot. I guess that there could have been an entry on top of 240 but I can't see it. Using 240 as the pellet count it comes out to 69%, much different than the hang tag!
I love looking at the pages from the records. It's like looking at the Dead Sea Scrolls. (And I'm glad Chuck can read this writing!)
