Default Range results part 2

Ive been curious to do some 25 yard patterns since it seems most small game hunting is at 20 yards or less. Here in GA #2 is the largest shot size you can use for small game. So I decided to test some #5s out the 10 and 8 ga at 40 then some #2s and such at 25 yards figured id be generous and add 5 yards. I noticed with one of the 8 ga loads the fiber wad blew threw the 1/2" plywood at 40 yards .

that 10 ga #2 load looks like it will wreck a raccoons day or I suppose any small game critter. Now raccoon may get dropped from the small game category soon if so maybe I can then test the Ts on them. The duct tape is about 4-5" wide.
