RE: What is the best shot# for doves??
Depends on what your gun likes. I can put more pellets in a target with 7 1/2 than i can with 8. test it out and find what works best for you

I like 7 1/2 but that is just me. 8's are good and I know guys that shoot 9's.

7 and a half!!!That is the best!!!The 8's and 9' are not that dependable!!!;)

7 1/2 with 1 1/8 oz shot.

RE: What is the best shot# for doves??
Depends on the hunting conditions. If I'm getting mostly longer shots, 40 yards or more, I'll use 7 1/2's. If I'm in a spot where the birds are coming in close, say, inside30 yards, I'll use 8's.
