Sure, but if the number of pellets is 9, the first pellet in the second shot is already starting out with a penalty of -9. The first pellet in the third shot starts with a penalty of -18. Even with a recoil of 1, the odds of hitting anything with the second and third shot are kind of horrible. I'm going to point back to skeet shooters and suggest it doesn't work like the GURPS rules seem to.
