I can vouch for the effectiveness of RST's #10 shot loads for woodcock, especially the spreaders. I began using them the season before last and the patterning is most impressive. I shot them (spreaders) first out of a 28" Fox AE 20 ga. choked M & F with 2 1/2" chambers to open up the patterns, then shot the standard 2 3/4" regular (non-spreader) loads out of my Fox Skeet & Upland Game Gun, using # 7 1/2 in the CYL barrel and #6s in the IC bbl. for grouse. Both proved to be great combinations.
