John, I have put many, many cases of Remington game loads thru my VH 1 frame 16.
I still have 5 cases 7 1/2's plus sevral cases of Estates, and 5 cases of Herters. I dont appreciate much difference in recoil between the brands. I now reload and more often shoot 7/8 and 3/4 thru the 16's( they are great). I have never had a problem with using #8's for grouse, I certainly think that 1 1/8 oz loads are "overkill" for grouse and any factory 1 oz load is fine for grouse.
