I love to shoot old shells at doves, lots of opportunities and
not much impact if the shell does not go off. I use up to size 6 for late season Collard Doves.

I use fresh ammo for quail and pheasants, too much labor involved for a misfire.

And if within shot size limit, I will use them for clays, but I do monitor the condition of the bore (base wads and shot columns left behind) before loading the next ammo.
