seems to me that there is a stringing pattern with the 20, no personal expertise, just What I'm reading.

Don't worry about stringing, its pretty much not a problem, unless you are using a very small gauge and a very heavy charge.
Have a read about square loads, this is what, the fore fathers figured out, before magnumits screwed shotgun loads up,
Basically a square load, is a charge that as deep as it is wide, this is normally, were you get the most consistent, even patterns,
so in a 10ga 11/2, 12ga 1, 1/8-1 1/4, 16ga 1oz, 20ga 7/8 oz, 3/4 in a 28ga,
Generally if you need a magnum shell, or think you do, really you properly need, more time on the trap and skeet field, or a bigger gauge.
