I take some small issue with saying they don't increase range; A denser pattern means you can maintain sufficient killing density to a longer range than you could with a less dense pattern. There are many variables that contribute towards shot density, but all else being equal, more shot equals a denser pattern. Saying they don't extent range is equivalent to saying a 2 inch .410 cartridge has the same range as a 3.5 inch 12 bore cartridge, or that a 20 bore cartridge has the same range as a 10 bore cartridge. It's false.
A 20bore has the same range as 10 bore, all things being equal.. there I said it because it’s true ish😁 but I think we are talking about 2 different things, range and effective range. Maybe I’ll do a video on this, pattern tests at 70 yards?
@@IRateGuns i’ve been toying with the idea of a fac super nova with moderator for shooting crows and foxes it would cut the boom down a bit i normally use a hushpower .410 before 6am

Sigh
I wouldn’t want to be hit with anything bigger then no5 past 75 yards larger the pellet the more retained energy
I don’t think there was a 375magnum
Nice to see im not the only person who goes to millride with a supernova 😂
I’ve seen someone there with an FAC one. Is that you?
@@IRateGuns Ohh noo thats not me i dont have a FAC ....... Yet. They do look much cooler though with an extension tube i do admit
@@carlmcgivern995 they do, I had a 10+1 capacity auto a while ago for giggles.
@@IRateGuns that is the dream 😂
I use 50g BB lead lylavale a lot for foxes if i could go bigger i would but i don’t think you can go bigger in 3 inch cartridge
50g is about the max for 3”, 3.5” is always an option

What’s the furthest you have been to hit one dead
@@paulburns2287 probably around the 50 yard mark most have been shot at 20-40 yards and have been stone dead under 20 yards it’s like using a slug when you head shoot them
having had my cert for 40 plus years ive never shot a magnum cart
It’s an experience
Don't forget, a pump action shotgun kicks more than a gas operated semi automatic shotgun.
