Default RE: 200 pellets in a 10" circle at 40 yards????

Sorry guys, camera is out in the car and I don't feel like running out to get it right now. I counted it up though and ended up with 193 pellets in 10". The wind was also blowing pretty good when I shot this and most of the pattern seemed to be on the left side of the paper, since it was only a 12" piece of paper I'm assuming I didn't catch the most dense section of the pattern as well. I'm guessing if I would have gotten the 10" circle centered on the most dense section it was well over 200 pellets.

This is the D1ck's Sporting Goods specific Super Mag with the Shur-Shot stock and 23" ribbed barrel, Indian Creek BDS .665 choke, and the new Hevi-13 3.5"/2.25oz #6's. The barrel was somewhat clean when this pattern was shot, it was swabbed once with a bore snake. I might polish it a bit and see what it can do off a bench with no wind and a larger target to catch the most dense 10" section.
