remember buckshot will not pattern like small shot...if all the buckshot is staying within a 15 to 24 inch circle at 40 yards your gun is doing its job and the shell you loaded...there will be ragged patterns in all buckshot loads...if the pattern is looking like a rifle hole or not spreading out at 40 yards the trouble is that if your using a over shot card and its goingdown in theshot collar this will not let the buckshot spread out....ive done this a number of times tilled i figured out the problem....ive shot the load your using a no of times in a p grade 10 ga with twist steel barrels with no effects on gun....good luck on the deer hunt with the old ten....... charlie
