They're good sized. I can shoot over 30 yards with my bow inside if I slide a couch over a foot or so. That's from the master bedroom door to the entry door attached to the garage. Second entry is around 2/3 that distance.
After patterning outside, I think I can hit the walls of the longer of the two hallways with the smaller shot when shooting end to end with a 3" felted mixed 00/4 stack, but the recoil is brutal and they're probably slightly over pressured. The pattern hasn't had time to develop at the second closer entry, but it's almost big enough to cover shoulder to shoulder on man targets. I can easily get something like a T shot show goose load to pepper the hell out of the walls and completely cover the hallway if a guy was willing to back down on the lethality of the first shot.
I've also put a box in the wall at the master entry to control lighting in the far hallway, but have not pulled the wiring yet. Once thats done it'll be a dark to daylight target with can lights angled toward the door. Before someone calls me completely paranoid, this also allows me to get out of the house during duck season at 3am without turning various lights on and risking waking up the devil.
