I have shot 9's for woodcock and bob whites while hunting. I have also used 9's on the clays course both as spreader loads and std 1oz. loads. You will need to check your patterns with which/what ever you use. They can be devastating on face type targets but may lack some on edge targets at distance.

I had a collegiate shooter that shot 9's as his first shot in trap doubles. He was really quick on the shot and all you saw was a puff.... Some trap shooters are shooting 8.5's from the 16 yard line also. 9's are the given choice for most skeet shooters.

Just an FYI
