shakin stevens Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 The 5s in the game loads are very good on duck and 3s for the geese do the job well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alycidon Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 I have used 36gr 4s on inland flighted Greys and Canada's, as long as I kept the range sensible they came down ok. I was using a lightweight OU game gun, on a foreshaw I would be looking toward a heavier gun and a bigger shot payload. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 I've loaded some 2oz B shells for on the marsh, although,being hevi shot, it's not all size B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landofficer Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 hevi shot is ok but with the stuff being heaver than everything you get fewer pellets you will read everywhere that the pattern always fails in any cartridge before pellet energy gives out. hevi shot is not for me and use a fair amount of nontox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
