I'm lucky if I can find my shells when I show up let alone have multiple loads at my fingertips.

If I've got 9's on hand when I start loading something I load 9's for skeet in all gauges . Also 9's for early dove but then again I go dove shooting so little anymore thats a kinda moot point .
In my mid period when I wasn't shooting competitively and had started loading and shooting again I loaded almost nothing but 8's and to be honest I'd have no issue with 8's for all the games dove and quail .
In recent years I've slowly grown a regard for 7 1/2's at the excercise in futiity (sporting and 5 stand) .
Also been using 7 1/2's and 6's for the tower euro shoot stuff .
Don't ask me why but in the last month or so I got a bag of 7's when I ordered shot . Not exactly sure why but what the hell I can try them on targets and or pheasents .
