Question Parker Research Letter and Pattern Information

I have a question about the information found in Parker research letters. Many provide the pattern as the number of pellets of a specified size and at a specified distance. But, there is no information about the shell used.

My question: Is it safe to assume that Parker used a 1oz. load in the shells used for patterns?

I have been assuming that so that I could use the information in our FAQ section to compute the choke type. Using FAQ #5 and #44 and assuming 1oz of shot, the choke can be computed. But, if they use other than 1oz. of shot the information seems meaningless to me.
