Smile Pheasant and Duck Loads

I am shooting DHE Reproduction guns, a 12 and 20. Even though they are built for some of the newer magnum loads I really don't want to shoot the guns "loose" by hammering them with some of the hot loads out there. Secondly, I don't think it takes the 1500fps to 1700fps to kill the birds. What do you generally shoot on wild pheasants hunted with and without dogs and duck hunting which is mostly pass shooting? Unfortunatley I don't live in an area where they decoy in very often and we can then shoot'em in the face, instead it is more pass shooting than anything else.

I would be grateful for any information you can pass along.

Thanks

John
