the reason I use lead is because it patterns decently out to 40 yards and still hold a wide enough pattern at 10 yards so it acts like a shotgun not a slug.
At 10 yards you better hold true whether you are shooting lead or denser than lead shot. I'd be willing to bet you there isn't very much difference at all in the pattern size of our two guns at that distance. And I have shot it at 20 before. The pattern at that distance was about 14 inches wide.
