It seems like it could lead to more deformed shot and less uniform patterns.
What is reality?
This is my reality. 30" circle at 40 yards. 1905 Remington 1894 10ga, 30" barrels with .045 and .046 choke shooting Fed hull 2 7/8", Win 209 primer, 19.3 gr Red Dot, SP10 wad, 1/2"+ fiber filler wad in shot cup, 1 1/8 oz Lawrence magnum #6, fold crimp. Patterns are 92/93%

I have a Lefever G 10 that shoots about the same, My Parker NH and H&R D grade shoot mid to high 80% at 40 yards with same load.
