For ruffed grouse in heavy cover, I have always used IC followed by a modified choke in a SxS (fixed chokes), and I have had good success with a cylinder bored 18.5 " pump slug gun.
For sharptails in more open terrain, most hunters say modified


BUT!!!!! Remember that "choke", as we talk about it, is influenced by multiple factors, including (but not limited to): shot size, shot hardness, shot payload, velocity, buffering, barrel constriction, ect. The best way to find the best "choke" is to pattern your gun.
Good luck and good hunting.
