Thank you to all that have replied so far! I plan on patterning the #5 shells; to experiment with choke combos out of the citori. All shots will be held to 40-45 yards or less, hinging upon the patterning results.

Good idea to pattern the 1 Oz 5’s before you use them, #5 shot is kind of notorious for patterning like crap out of a 20 bore.
4 E-setters and he thinks you’ll be pissin in the wind? Sounds like he’s got some E-setters that act more like E-springers. That doesn’t sound very enjoyable if your a E-setter kind of guy (I’m a e-setter guy).

one ounce loads out of a six pound 20 bore kick like hell...and wound birds...
one and an eighth ounce loads out of a seven pound 12 bore kick less...and kill birds quicker...
keep it simple and keep it safe...

I’ve CLEANLY killed hundreds of wild chukar, sharptails, huns & quail, blue & ruffed grouse…. and yes, even pheasants using 1 Oz of 6’s from numerous light 20 bore guns. If you can’t handle that recoil it’s probably time to hang it up. Most of my 20 bores are sub 6 lbs too. Ed, you’re such a dingbat. The consummate gum flapper. Wish you’d just make like a tree and go.

Ed needs to stick with subjects he knows something about, like acetylene torches.
May God bless America and those who defend her.

Fellas, even Herr Flammenwerfur auf Vermont-- any truth to the rumor that Fiocchi shells are known for having hard primers? Local dealer has 2 boxes of 12 ga. Fiocchi 1 ounce No. 8 target loads at $8.99/box- price sounds good in today's market, but just wonderin?? RWTF
