Different strokes I guess, I'm a keep it simple kind of person. I think too much emphasis is placed on equipment and too little on technique and visualization. I shoot 1 load, 7/8 oz at 1200fps of 7.5's for trap and sporting, #8's for skeet out of a stock 30" 391 Urika II.

Sounds great!... I went from a 1oz load about a year ago to 7/8 with no difference in sporting scores, and recently went down to 3/4 oz. Still playing with the load a little by upping the powder charge I was using for 7/8 and 1 oz loads by a grain, thinking I am pretty close to getting it right - the recoil of what amounts to a 28 gauge load in a 8+ pound O/U is very nice.....and it even works the A400 Beretta semi my wife has - that has a 3-1/2" chamber.....
Light loads break the targets just as nicely as heavy loads without busting up your shoulder - depending on the gun, you MAY need to use one choke constriction tighter as you go lighter......but, IMO, it's worth it....
