Easy fix for the tight chokes without boring them out is some spreader loads. They work well. I have used then on a 20 ga. mod x full 21 of mine for quail. Not perfect but certainly workable.

That's great in theory, but when a grouse or woodcock gives you .2 seconds in snot thick cover there is no such thing as letting them get further out. I do that with chukar, quail and ditch chickens

I did some with polywad inserts and they do help, but I enjoy roll crimping shells as much as I enjoy flossing my teeth. ADHD I think...

Agree with Andy and Dan. With grouse hunting, its like the wedding vow, only its "shoot now or forever hold your peace". The sound of the grouse flushing galvanizes me into action. Unfortunately, that often translates into my shooting on game lands/released pheasants, I shoot too soon. My buddy Terry says to himself "My what a pretty bird" before he shoots , I doubt I get out "my" before I shoot. Wild pheasants don't dally around and require quick action.
On sporting clays, however, I wish I could shoot sooner , I think it would help my scores. Those clay targets move much faster than a game bird.
