I shoot all 2 1/2 inch low pressure and nothing over 1150 FPS in everything. In these older guns we all cherish I'm much more concerned with the stock as I know the barrels are safe.
In the last few years I've gone to 3/4 oz in the 20 and some in 16 but mostly 7/8 oz in both 16 and 12. Clay targets break and birds fall from the sky. It's also easier to acquire the second target or get a second shot at a bird with the lighter loads.
