I had no intention of suggesting that 9's are a proper field choice. It's been 60yrs since I've killed anything in the field but 8's will kill a pigeon in the ring where I might be reluctant to use 9's.
Seems that the "use enough gun" is always good advice at some level and it seems that responsible hunters know that.
