    Anything will kill rabbits, cant go wrong with #4's

    Not sure about everyone else but I use #3 steel and thats good for anything. Geese,ducks,parries,rabbits,goats whatever jumps in front of us really. Its a good all rounder. In my 20g I've used #4-#5 lead an its been really good too this year on ducks and geese which surpirsed me as I thought #5 might not tip a goose over in a 20g.

    Normally use 36grs #3 steel in 12g we find it the perfect all rounder but we buy a slab each of trap ammo since its cheap for pigeons rabbits and what not after the gamebird seasons over.

    I'd think you'd have to be close to get a decent kill with#7 steel. Never actually seen steel that low only 2-3-4 in shops here.
