The quickest way to improve your pattern count is to move south. Here is how much you can improve:
If you are getting over 100 pellets in the 10 @ 40 yards in April in Minnesota:
That same gun and choke will get ~ 115 in Iowa.
Missouri will bring you up to ~ 125.
Arkansas will bring you up to ~ 135.
Louisiana will bring you up to ~ 145.
That is based on the average high temperatures for April. Remember that when you are comparing patterns. A pattern count is only useful if it includes the corresponding air temperature.
