Several years ago, Morris Baker and I were have a drink, a I brought up the subject of "mist " shot. I told him of my experience as a young woodcock and partridge hunter using, as I recalled ,number 11 shot. We loaded 2 inch shell, of which we cut & trimmed, to fit into his Purdey 12 & Parker 20 . I up to this conversation was using 8's & 9's.
Well the next time Morris and I got together , I was presented with a case of #10's ,two half inch, 28 bore shells----they fit my PHE 24"----I can only say DEADLY on woodcock & grouse---both these birds have small bones and my dogs did the rest to find the downed birds.
