Have you tried any other chokes with the SX2? I'm thinking about buying a jellyhead or Indian creek to shoot in mine.

No doubt pixidust will kill em. I shoot 7s myself and have never had a problem (knock on wood  ).

Aren't you worried that 375+ at 40 yards will cause you to miss those closer in birds? That just seems a little excessive, personally I like to call em in a little closer. But hell, I have to, my gun don't put 623 1/2 pellets in an 8" circle at 51 yards
