To do this you need to adjust windage and elevation and is rather easy. I started at 10 yards - using trap loads and trying to punch out a orange quarter sized dot out of white card board. Once I could consistely do that I backed up to 20, 30, 40, did 50 for grins it is there! When I backed up is when I strated using my turkey loads - was less punishing using trap laods to get there. I had the gun centered - I adjusted elevation to slightly drop it to adjust the bottom center - you may not need to.
I used turkey head silloettes on 6x 11.5 paperand only counted pellet holes in the neck vertebra, skull, eye, or juglar. My rule of thumb - 8 to 12 pellets consistently hitting these is your effective killing range.

I used this patterning method last year with great success...:)
