Default Anyone using Non-Tox Shot? Which ones??

I'm sure some of you are now, or soon will be, forced to use non-toxic loads for upland hunting. Here in WI, some pheasant hunting and dove hunting areas are now requiring non-tox, depending where you are. Was interested in who's shooting what, with what, and what the results are.

I have been using 2-3/4" #5 and #6 high brass at Chain-O-Lakes State Park with good results. I've tried #4 (too much damage) and#6 low brass, and #7-1/2 (too many lost). When they first mandated non-toxic the smallest you could find were 3" #3 boy did those do some damage.
