You may kill one 3 times in a roll, and the next 3 you won't. I like the 100 in the 10" that way you know there won't be any surprises.
Put 50 pellets in a 10 inch circle and then draw a turkey brain neck and spine its not getting away 1 out of 3 times I have killed many in the 45-55 yard range and exactly 0 have gotten through the pattern and I used to shoot lead 4s before hevi shot. Although i don't agree with everything RR posts I do agree with you sometimes take something you read or believe to be true with way to much as this is the absolute rule.
