what affects the density of pellets when pattering your shotgun?

Question

A. the action your using

B. the guage your using

C. the magazine your using

D. the choke your using

Answer 1

A. No
B. Yes. Large gauge= more shot, denser pattern.
C. No.
D. Yes. Full coke dense, 1/4 choke light pattern.
Also; Shot size, small pellets give denser patterns.
Wadding, plastic monowads give denser patterns than felt, card etc.
Range, close = dense, distant = light.
Pellet material, lead, steel, bismuth etc, all pattern differently.
Buffering with shot=less pellet damage, denser pattern.
Lead used to make pellets, hard lead = dense, soft lead = light.

Answer 2

Choke

Answer 3

Only two things can effect your patterning; ammo and choke. Ammo because a larger load of lead in a particular shell governs how much lead you can send downrange....and the choke because it dictates how focused the shot will be at any given range. So your answer (from the above choices) is D.

And tell your teacher it's "you're". lol

Answer 4

The choke, gauge, distance, shot size, shell length, powder load,shot weight in load, barrel length, ammo manufacturer and shot material to name a few. It usually takes me using 5-10 different loads to find the best pattern at 30 yrds. If you have adjustable sights, you can adjust your sight so the highest density of shot is in the target area. Hope this helped.
