John I believe it was the late great Leo Harrison who said about shooting 1 1/8 only because they wouldn't allow 1 1/4 ounces of shot. When you had averages like Leo had, every pellet counts. Of course Leo was about 6'5 and about 350 pounds. Imho, he was the greatest trapshooter ever.
I shot 1 oz for years at 16 yards and 1 1/8 of light 8's from long yardage (many years ago) at 25+ yards at handicap. If I missed, it wasnt due to the shells. I shoot 12ga 7/8 oz and 3/4 oz in 20 and 28 ga at SC's and they perform well.
