I’ll primarily use 7 1/2 or 8 on the Clays course. A target showing edge or over 40 yards gets a dose of 7 1/2. The edge/shoulder is the toughest part of the clay. Inside 40 yards and showing belly/dome gets #8. Easiest part of the bird to break. As for .410, I do prefer using 8 1/2 in the .410. I also prefer using 8 1/2 in the 28g. I find 8 1/2 gives a nice balance between the volume of #9 and the higher energy of #8. .410 and 28 targets are normally closer than bigger bore targets. For hunting I’ll use 7 1/2, 6 or 5 in the little guns depending on what bird I’m chasing.
