I will take a look at Target Telemetrics and see what they have. Digital photo analysis is interesting. Identifying closely spaced or touching pellet holes can be tricky.

Agreed! I'm sure that there are some very smart people that will disagree with me, and that's okay, but my experience has been that shotgun patterns vary greatly. As you mentioned, at 40 yards, wind can be a factor. And, the simple task of aiming at the bullseye, at 40 yards, with nothing more that a bead on the end of your barrel, lacks a certain amount of precision. HOWEVER, testing a few patterns sure does help a shooter understand what's going on "out there".
