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.

Just a little food for thought.

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.

Sweet very nice.

3.5 grains of Hodgdon Titewad. I cut my over powder wads from a milk jug with a hole punch just slightly larger than the case and press firmly down on the powder. I fill the case almost to the rim with #9 shot and seal with a disk of styrofoam cut from a take-out container. I seal that with a dab of clear silicone.

If you look back at the first picture you can see a tear at the top of the cardboard where the plastic over powder wad hit.

Thanks for the info.
I went back and looked, yep.
Now to find a cheap single shot.

You're welcome. It's a useful tool for close range pesting. I killed my first rattlesnake with it last week. I generally leave snakes alone, but this one was inside the fence where we let out 2 little spoiled dogs run.

How's this for fast..https://www.gunbroker.com/item/835526880 Not mine but just like it.
Cheap, but ....ugly

Anybody heard of 'em?
I've spent a $100 on worse.

Kind of looks like a Midland arms or a Hatfield.
