So you are questioning whether or not to spend + or - $45 for a bag of shot that would be far and away more effective for crow shooting based on what a couple of guys who have shot thousands of crows told you?
The 7's I am sure will pattern fine, but regardless of how they pattern they do not measure up to the performance of #6 on crows. Constant use of 7 will result in more visibly hit birds flying off, birds coming down screaming like they were stung by 100 bees, more walking wounded that have to be run down and dispatched. All these happens with #6 but to a much lesser extent than with #7, #7.5 and #8.
