Already stated that I'm not a skeet shooter, sporting clays only, when it's not feathered. But, isn't the longest shot on a skeet field 21 yards? I've got no doubt 9s will break clays reliably at that distance.

Still ain't gonna use it on birds of any kind past about 25 yards.

Thanks for all the replies, interesting stuff. Especially the half and half mixture. I used to do that a little with 7 1/2s and 9s, but never reached any conclusion about it.
