It would not be velocity so much as payload It should be fine with any standard 1 1/8 oz 12 ga load the 1 Oz loads may not generate high enough pressures to cycle the action velocity in shotshell is expressed as drams equivalent or DE I would start with a 1 1/8 OZ 3 DE load and see if it functioned If that works drop down to a 1 1/8 2.75 DE and check it https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/656_2081_10000533/products_id/712002395/Winchester%20SUPER%20TARGET%2012GA%20HV%20#7.5 3DR 1 1/8OZ 25/10/
I honestly don't think you will run into much issue Caleb. There are plenty of you tube video's with everything from slugs, buckshot and low brass birds hot and even the low brass cycled good. For peace of mind, all the major ammunition makers make high velocity bird shot loads in all common shot sizes. They are usually listed as Hi-Vel shot shells.
