I agree with you because I thought the same !
I looked on a shot table a little while ago . An ounce of #8's is over 400 , 1 1/8 ounce of #5's are about 200 pellets .
I'm hoping the owner will ask me back this coming saturday and if he does I'm taking a pair of 20 gauge superposed and my 20 gauge Sterlingworth . I was shooting the cheap Winchester Dove and Quail loads with 7/8 ounce of #8's and they were laying the smack down on them !
My farmer friend only hunts this field one day a week , so the shoot we did saturday was the third since the season opened !
It just might be good one more saturday !
Incidently I would load some more of my light 16 gauge shells but the reloader I was using went to my friends son after his passing and our distributer has yet to ship me a 600JR !
