I suspect recoil would be stout with 1 3/8 oz shot.


I also have not seen the need for anything heavier than 1 1/8 on pheasants. I have the new Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen and it is a dream to carry and to shoot. I dont think a heavier load would bother me but like you say, I have no real need for it to make them any more dead than the loads I currently use. When I was shooting a NID 16 I never used anything over 1 ounce.
