What are you changing? Knowing how to shoot makes a big difference. Opening morning I got my limit with 29 shells. 50%, that's about average for me with dove. I shoot skeet better.

I have lost 1 bird this year. 68 shots, 13 dove roflmao though half of my shots are 40-60 yards. I cant stand birds flying that close in the begining of the season and not letting some lead fly. Should probably consider a modified choke instead of ic.

Im tryin to quit looking down the barrel and using the bead. Instead focusing on the bird and just swinging the gun. Im sure im still doin it wrong though confused2

I try and keep it under a box, but 50% is about par for me with dove. I could do better of I tried, but I was shooting #8 with IC, 45 yards is max I should shoot, length of a skeet field, but I took a lot of longer shots at high flying white wing. I picked up 5x as many shells as a shot.
