Nothing wrong with using 1 1/4 ounces for high doves, but there is no point in a 3 3/4 DE load. A 3 1/4 DE classic pigeon load will kill as far since the velocity at the dove is not much different. The big difference is in the recoil. My experience is that the pattern density can be astounding with slow 1 1/4 ounce loads.
