That's nice, CZ. Thanks.

In the old days of wild bobwhites there was seldom a quail gun used in the South that was more open than IC. Men used what was sold and, unless someone ordered special chokes in a gun, very few were more open that that. With the old paper shells and no plastic shot cups the IC probably delivered something on the order of what today's shells would out of a .005", or skeet, choke.

My use of a spreader would likely be limited to flushes on woodcock. I've never seen a woodcock flush yet that would endanger a dog with a spreader load. They don't get up like quail. They go UP first.
