it would be really interesting to see a shot pattern for your 45 loads

I'll try and put some pellets on cardboard for you. What distance would you like to see? Here's a little video.

I'd say under 25 yards or so.

if you can get a solid pattern at 25 yds, I'd consider that to be exceptional

No problem at all. I'm limited to about 60 yards here at home, so I enjoy developing loads that I can use without running out to the club to shoot.

Now if Henry made a Mares leg version like the Mossberg Shokwave I would be all over it. I guess for a $200 stamp one could just make their own.
