Thought this article in ShootinUK by Richard Atkins would interest those shooting higher loads in light doubles. Great explanation of the performance of a lighter load. For me it is 19 grams in a 28 or 14 grams in a 32 on woodcock and grouse.
And a good visual example of the crushing of pellets by Buffalo Outdoors. See the deformed buckshot at about 7:00. It is a 410 with 5 pellets of OOO buckshot, but I presume the crushing effect is likely similar even with a load of 7½.

Of course, as Ricard says, more is better, just not as much as one would think.
