Just wondering what kind of pattren do you get at 25m with a (20ga) birdshot with a full choke? barrel is 20" btw


I'm more of a 'single projectile' guy so had to ask...

I hope that i am not talking around your question but, pattern is trad. measured in percentage within a 30" circle at 40yds. and this is kept constant for comparison purposes in the industry. Normally a full choke will do 80% or more down to cyl. or skeet which may do 45%. One more knowing in math then i could figure how that translates to 25m. Barrel length should have no bearing on these figures, the short barrel just makes it harder to hit with. Also important at the same time(with the same target) is your percentage above and below your point of aim.
 
I guess better yet, what do you want to do with it?

There are more factors involved, shot size, amount of shot, type of shot.

The only way to answer your question is to set up a sheet of paper at 25 M and shhot it.

(or do like me and find an old washing machine, fridege, car etc and shoot it)
