Almost all her training birds before that were also chukar.
Going to a preserve in a week and they tell me the cover is very heavy and thick because it hasn't died yet. So they recommended pheasant instead of chukar, that the chukar will have trouble flying well out of the cover.
I want to take my 16 ga. for a couple reasons. It's the gun my dog was okay with last week, and it's also the gun I shoot the best with. In the interest of setting my dog up for success, I'll take the 16 but I have questions about which ammo to use.
If I go with pheasant, should I use the #5? Or am I thinking that just because there's a pheasant on the box?

Advice on chokes also appreciated. My choices are: skeet, light modified and improved modified.
Also, I can't tell if that Express Long Range is lead or not. I use an old Model 12 and am under the impression I should use the softer lead loads.
