I found a inexspensive shell at sportsman, rios. 10.99 for 3" and 11.99 for 3 1/2's. I've been using them for 2 seasons now.

I got a couple of cases of Federal 20 GA. 3" 2's 1350 FPS this fall for 100 a case from Rogers.

I'm shooting RIO 3 1/2", 1 3/8 T shot. Hammers them dead.

I shoot 2.5" 12ga. handloads of 7/8oz of ITX 6's and wait for them to come in close.





1 oz of ITX 4's if geese are on the menu.

i've been shooting 1 1/8oz 3" rio loads this year.  bought them cabelas when they had them on sale for $89 bucks a case, figured they'd help keep me from burning up my "good" nitro steel loads.  now i'm wishing i'd bought another case or two, as they seem to be excellent performing loads.

once we get past mid december the 10 gauge will come out again.  just wish i could find some BBB or T shot loads locally.  got lots of BBs.

Winchester waterfowl loads from Wal-Mart.

get the 3" #2's

Remeington Hyper Sonic #2's in 3 1/2

I dont decoy or even call anymore, just passover shooting in sagebrush. So some shots are 50-60 plus for geese and ducks. These loads work best of any! But they are spendy...

The best??  They tear up auto guns and because they are so fast, guys get luckier at long range, because it shortens your lead.  Makes up for those that can't get the lead down and typically shoot behind the birds.     If you want good, go with a higher density metal that carries better, more energy down range and figure out the leads.
