Hi Wayne-o, Sounds like the field loads you've tried using are really light loads. Try bouncing up to 3-1/4 Dram Eqiv. packed with 1-1/8 or 1-1/4oz. of shot or even better 3-3/4 Dram Eqiv. packed with 1-1/4oz. of shot. Obviously there are heavier loads available but, with the extra punch comes extra expense. These loads are available from the big three:

2-3/4" | 3-3/4 Dram Eq. | 1-1/4oz. | 1330 muz. vel.
2-3/4" | 3-1/4 Dram Eq. | 1-1/4oz. | 1220 muz. vel.
2-3/4" | 3-1/4 Dram Eq. | 1-1/8oz. | 1255 muz. vel.

Good Luck
