That’s exactly what we should use for our smaller upland birds to prevent rendering a valuable bird to the garbage heap... too wasteful.
These small shot weights translate to less pattern density, keeping in mind that the pattern doesn’t open any more than a heavier (more dense) load so we still must be good shots, else we blame the load.
