The 3" #7 pattern looks awesome.  Very dense and even.  But, your target says 20 yards, and your post says 25 yards.  Nice pattern either way.

Again where is the 40yd targets. 

25 or 30yd targets don't say much.

25 or 30 yard patterns say a lot. If a strutter is at that distance I want to know how my pattern is at that distance as well.

I can't believe I saw this here .Hurrah, Amen,Attaboy,etc. I have shot way more at 25-30 than 40. It is a matter of how accurate is my POI / POA at this distance rather than counts,etc.

No they don't. Most of the time you can't tell the difference between good and great setups while shooting at 25-30 yards.. 40 yards will tell the truth. If 25-30 yards were the measuring stick we might as well all be shooting 20 gauges with lead. JMO

Yes, Just your opinion.  Let the guy shoot at 25 yards without giving him a hard time..jeesh

Amen!

I wonder what my patterns would even look like at 25yds and how would I even count them.   :lol:

Absolutyel agree with you in that 40 yards is the tell all. But Shooting at shorter distance helps too. Maybe not if your getting 360 at 40 but most ppl arent getting that.  But its more of a POA/POI thing.
