How long are the barrels?
It will be a great little gun for upland birds but depending on the chokes, pheasant shooting may be pushing it.
We don't generally refer to ammo for these old guns as "high brass" or "low brass" but more to chamber pressure and muzzle velocity. Muzzle velocity of 1250 fps and chamber pressures of 8500 psi or less is about all you'll want to shoot comfortably in the gun. For such birds as grouse, quail and woodcock 1125 is good for velocity and lower pressures will be quite comfortable and will easily get the job done.
