Charlie I ordered these 5s from BPI
https://www.ballisticproducts.com/Ni...ductinfo/NP05/ . I had planned on ordering some #2s or 4s since it was all I could find in stock then when I checked BPI they had some 5s in stock again.
Charlie a 3oz load of 9s would be 1755 pellets

throw in a spreader insert and youd have a nasty quail load

. Im not planning on shooting anything that heavy 2 1/4oz seems to be a good payload range for the 8 ga though.
Charlie I plan to do some patterning at 20yards since I would like to do some raccoon hunting and 20 yards is going to be around your max range here for them.
