Thread: Shot size, steel and lead

So with the main Duck hunting season drawing to a close here what did you find the best size shot for the job.
Both Mai Mai and jump shooting.

For the mai mai on opening day I used Winchester steel size 3, 3"
my pond is small and that was probably over kill, last year I used Gamebore 2.75 and that was adequate. I bought the Win this year because it was cheap.

Got to admit I shot "at"two parrys this year on opening with the Winchester and was surprised neither fell.

I've since bought an Under and over and patterned the Win and a cheaper brand through it
Must say the cheaper brand gave me more coverage out to 40yrs, in close, 25-30, it made no difference.

What have you guys found works best.?
