Alright so just moved to WA and this weekend the wife and I are headed to chase quail with the potential of pheasants in the mix.
I carry a 12ga, she a 20ga and we hunt behind boomer our flushing dog.
We’ve only hunted released pheasants and typically I use Kent 2-3/4” #5 fast steel, also knocked down the random woodcock with that too.
Long story short what’s the best shot to use when you’re targeting quail but wild pheasants are a possibility as well. This would be for me with the 12ga and for her with the 20ga.
She has no issue with recoil, should I have her with 2-3/4” #5s for the first two shells and the third be a 3”?
