    How important is it to shoot the same shell consistently, and what is the best way to pick that shell? 7.5 or 8's 1 oz or 1 1/8 1250 or 1300 fps.

    Each shell is a little different, if you watch a good shooter you will see he always shoots the same shell.

    The good shooters I have watched always shot a shell they get for free.

    I have seen Brad Dysinger break a winning hdcp score shooting a different brand of shell on each of the 4 traps. Much of the loyalty to a brand is due to a sponsorship. Not always , but in some cases.
