The 3 1/4 - 1 1/4 load is the Gold Standard, in my humble opinion.
I used to shoot box birds once a week, and did so for quite a few years. Estimated 40,000+ birds over my "career".
My go-to load was the Federal Flyer, or Gold Medal in the above settings, only with #8 shot.
Towards the end of my active pigeon days I switched to an 1 1/8th oz, and never saw any measurable difference.
Shot a 29 x 30 at Eversull's for the championship with that load. Calcutta Day, BTW.
Tight chokes rule!
