Im not trying to start a big argument but why do you choose to shoot #4s. The shells you are using are IMO the best lead shells on the market but #6s will hold a much better pattern at 40 yards and they are still lethal at 40.

No reason really. Just what I first started using when I started turkey hunting. I have a box of #6s that I've shot a few times that haven't matched what my #4s did.
