The Federal Handgun 4-pellet 000 buck holds pretty tight patterns from the Governor. I am able to keep all the pellets on an 8.5x11 piece of paper at 10 yards.

The 410 PDX load seems to have more power (recoil), but the pattern is much larger. The "discs" hold a fairly tight pattern, but the BBs scatter quite wide... a reckless amount in my opinion.
