Dennis:
Pardon me if I return to the original premise: As others have said, 1 oz. loads are all that is needed in the 12-bore for sporting purposes. Given the assumption that you place your shot well, they will work fine - and save a fine Parker as well as your shoulder.
For targets, I have shot 7/8 oz loads in choked guns for decades with perfect satisfaction. And, even if the bore is cylinder, 1 oz. of #8 is effective on any sporting course if you can lead the shot. If you can't, full choke and 1 1/8 oz. won't help.
Best, Kensal
