Shotgun spread pattern

[ACuddlyBadger]

9 shots of 6.5mm Express Buckshot out of a 710mm barreled 153 with a choke. There are too few pellets in the middle and there is a hole with no hits at all towards the center. Mind the 870 barrel poking out, it had a light on it. 

KS23, 9 shots of Shrap 25, I had SIGNIFICANT drop and was aiming at the edge connecting the wall and ceiling. Pellets are found distributed in the center. Mind the 153, I equipped that to shoot the wall to despawn the old impacts on that part of the wall. 

The grouping from the 153 is substantially tighter but the KS23 scored far more hits in the center of the spread cone. 

I don't know if this is realistic or not, but it doesn't feel right that there is that little pellet distribution with 12 gauge shotguns in the middle of my aim cone. This is a smoothbore 710mm barrel with a choke (though the wad is supposed to control the pattern) and the KS23 rivals it in pattern size and pellet distribution.

All the shotguns shot patterns are more like sawed-off or shot barrels. They would be great for killing zombie hordes!

only from that perspective.

How far away did you take the shot, @ACuddlyBadger? I got a kill at allmost 70m away with 7mm buckshot with an MP-153.

Max hideout shooting distance.
