My pheasant load for my 16g LC is also the 2 1/2" Eley Grand Prix Brit 5s (about 6s) 15/16 oz at 1225 fps BUT the Eley website has been down for some time and it looks like they've loaded up the Grand Prix to 1380 fps! No way those'll be low pressure nor low recoil. I've been checking the website to see if the lighter loading will still be available.
If I was using a bit less...uh...delicate gun, I'd use the B&P F2 Classic 1 1/16 at 1280 but by actual testing they run about 10,500 psi and I thought the recoil was like 1 1/8 oz 16g loads.
