I did not count pellets or use the normal 10 and 20 inch circle, jus shot and got it set in, my 6 year old daughter colored the targets for me and thought it was cool that I was gonna shoot them  . the targets  were 8 1/2x11 think

I like the bottom one better.#6 shot will improve that pattern more but its huntable like it is.

Why do we like the bottom one better than the top one ? All my Turkey guns have sights or scopes and I shoot them like rifles so I like the tight patterns , I like the top one best.

Better overall pattern on the bottom one is why.  I like a good 10" core and 20" core as well.  The 20" numbers play a good role for overall pattern for wiggle room.

Counting holes is fine but the bottom is the better overall hunting pattern.
