All these years have taught me this. When shooting a SxS, go with the lightest load that gets the job done.
One ounce at about 1150 fps, or so, should be your benchmark. 1 1/8 oz should be considered on the heavier side. 1 1/4 oz should be your max. The reloading bench is your friend, if you're going into the heavier loads. First, find out how a 1 oz. load works for you, and be prepared to be amazed.
The beauty of a well crafted, good handling side by side, is to run loads through it that compliment the concept. Otherwise, get a Benelli autoloader.
