I've noticed that shotgun mastery level 5 has a greater effect on dps for shotguns with fewer pellets, and occurs regardless of fire rate. For example, the Tempest gains a 20% increase in dps (single target, all pellets connect), while the Shockfield gains only a 10% increase in dps (single target, all pellets connect). This makes sense, because a shotgun that fires one pellet would then have double dps from mastery level 5, because now two pellets are fired every shot.
