OK, I thought I might be missing something there. I tried a Patternmaster with buckshot back... well, several years ago. It worked pretty much as advertised but they advised against shooting slugs through it and I didn't want to be limited to just buckshot so I kept experimenting. Sorta tough on the wallet to experiment with $100 choke tubes and premium buckshot loads, so I went looking for the lower-priced spread at that point. Haven't tried any more high-dollar choke tubes since then, but the premium buckshot loads sure make a difference in most guns.
yeah thats the price to pay...tight patterns for buckshot use only or slugs. most lead slugs tho will shape down as they come out the choke since lead is soft compared to steel, but i still wouldnt do it.
While he's shooting back..........
Does it matter? Still at that range if you shoot back at him while he's shooting and you hit him....he's not gonna like a buckshot load at that range. its still gonna cause damage and make him look for cover or treat his wounds.
