This project is in good hands.
That's a given Todd. I never thought different. I think that what you'll find is that more hits from a denser pattern (more shot in the load) with smaller pellets has a greater killing effect, within reason and on a "soft" bird, than fewer hits from larger shot. And I would guess a linear effect in increased killing power with more smaller pellets vs. fewer larger shot.

I am glad you are working this Todd.
