I shot 9's on skeet all the time. My chokes are cyl and Lt. IC. Thats cyl in and IC out. My IC measures .009.
I hunt woodcock with 9's almost exclusively with 8 1/2 second barrel sometimes.
I won the Texas State NSCA AA Class Sporting clays 410 championship years ago with all Remington 8 1/2's and IC/Mod out of Briley sub gauge tubes. There were two ribbit targets on that course at about 20 or so yards.
So, yea, 9's will break targets and kill birds. I dont know about cold temps but down to the freezing mark they still worked good for me. If its a concern, tighten the choke if ya can. More shot on target.
