No worries and it was a fresh target the large hole was the first thing I noticed. Im thinking perhaps some shot/lead became imbedded in the fiber and thats why it did that? My best guess anyhow, I have noticed wads can do odd things if the shot doesn't separate from them like it should. I cant remember what specific load that was but the pattern wasnt good so I tossed that target and tried again.

I think my favorite is the 10 ga 1 3/8oz of #2s, should be Thors hammer on any tree dwelling animal. Heres what the T shot did at 25 yards on a piece of printer paper/deer target in the 10 ga, theres a few holes from the previous shooter circled in green.
