What is your favorite gun and load combo for pheasant hunting?

I use Browning A-5 Light 12 with modified choke and Federal Hi-Velocity #6 shot. I think things are going to change this year though. Turns out my eyeballs are quite fragile (in addition to fragile retinas) so I have been ordered to acquire something with less recoil to hunt geese (I use 3" 870 shooting hard-kicking very high velocity steel). That Light 12 belts me pretty good shooting those loads. Also, for shooting over the flushing labs that gun and shell combination was excellent. However, my Brittany pup is really coming into her own so I'm thinking I'll need a more scattered pattern for closer shooting.
