Yep, that's the target I use. My 870 shooting 2 3/4" Baby Mags" 1 1/2 oz of #4 will put 7 to 9 into that shaded area--neck bones & brain @40 yards. It's what I've being using for 25 years---never had a problem. I've killed at 40 yards. With that said I try to get them into 25 yards.
I also aim at the "waddles"--where the skin meets the feathers. that way your top 1/2 of the pattern hits the head. The bottom 1/2 hits the neck
