I hunt an area in N. D. that has all three, but the sharptails are out of season when pheasants start. We get into all three and I would say that any pheasant load would work for the others as well; actually may be more than you need for the littler sharptails.
Early in the season, I use 1 1/4 oz. ahead of three dram equiv. (no. 6) and later go to No. 5 shot when the birds are farther away on the flush. Works for me in the 12 gauge.
