Back boring or otherwise Newton's Laws of Motion don't suddenly stop applying. It's a struggle to reconcile how back boring reduces recoil - or rather if it does it directly implies that back boring is causing less energy to be imparted on the shot load.
Also given that the shot pattern from a shotgun is a probability distribution with numerous random processes affecting it whenever one sees any form of pattern testing where the sample size is low they have to be discounted as not significant. I could flip a coin ten times and get heads ten times, that doesn't mean that I'll always get heads. Same with shotgun patterns - sample sizes need to statistically significant. Run a few thousand tests of lengthened cones vs standard and then lets see if there's a difference, and if there is a difference is it statistically significant.
