    3/4 and full dose the trick but can vary depending on shot size. I'm sure there are many different opinions.

    A good all round bet is 1/2 and 3/4 with a 32g load. That'll take a pheasant at 30/40 metres no problem.

    If you are snipe shooting, then 1/4 and 1/2 is adequate and for the ducks you'd want 3/4 and full with a 36g load.

    Are you shooting over a pointing dog or a flusher?
