Preferred Upland Loads?

[Nick87]

Well, tell me Mr Nick, what kind of problem is it? I’d never shot a grouse with a shotgun before and ran into em in close timber… I even tried to aim high!

Is that a serious question?

I just buy cases of 5's and shoot everything with it.

I shoot 7.5s for grouse and partridge until pheasant season opens. Early pheasant I will shoot 6s but move to 5s by the end of October.

Looks slightly familiar but I have a hard time remembering back that far!
