According to my Grandpa the wad alone will drop a bird as far as 10 yds out. He shot several pheasant a year in Montana while he was still able to hunt and said he had one every couple years with the wad in the bird. I have never had that problem but I've only been upland hunting for the past few years and only dropped 2 pheasant.
