Ray it's not just the limit of 6 ducks, it is the concept of "fair chase" by limiting the gunners effective range along with the number of shots in the gun. Having just started shooting a 2 7/8" 10 bore this year and learning just how effective it is at long range I would hazard a guess here that a properly configured 8ga could be an effective 90 yard gun.
PS. I don't believe a 12ga 3.5" recoils less than a 10ga 3.5". All the 10ga repeaters are heavy guns, the 12ga super mags in general are not. I also believe anyone who says a 12ga 3.5" will do anything a 10ga 3.5 will do is spoken by a person who is either selling the 12 or never patterned a 10.
