I will have to check out the release sites befor this upcoming season so I know where they are. It's nice to hear from someone who has hunted with success with out a dog. I got the boots and the reinforced pants already, must have for busting brush grouse hunting. Thanks for the Info

Use your 16 if you shoot it the best. 1-1/8 ounces of #6 shot in a 16 ga SxS have killed 100's of roosters for me from Kansas to South Dakota and Montana out to Washington and most states in between. None in Canada though.
I've had good performance with 1-1/8 ounce Winchester Mark V, Remington Nitro and Federal "blue box" loads in the 16. You should be able to find them somewhere. My SxS did not pattern the Fiocchi Golden Pheasant ammo as well.
