I shot some decoying ducks with #7 bismuth during this past season. Loads were 1 1/4 ounce, they seemed to kill them fine if they were inside 30 yards but any further and it was cripple city. I've never been a big fan of the Bismuth Cartridge Company loaded shells and that's what they were so that might have been the problem.
