Thanks Harry.
All I ever hunt (pheasant-wise) are preserve birds. I usually use # 6, but most of the shots are close anyway, so # 7 1/2 should still work. (I plan on hunting this fall with that 16 ga. drilling I've mentioned previously. It is a very light gun, so I don't want to shoot heavy loads out of it. I've "proofed" it with RST 7/8 ounce PaperLites @ approx. 5800 - 6000 psi, but plan to only shoot it with their 3/4 ounce load @ 5300 psi. It's a great load, but 7 1/2 is the largest shot. So far, this load with # 8 shot works great at trap, as long as I keep that cheek firmly planted on the stock !)
