    waterfowl

    so who here is counting the days down to the opening?

    what size shot do you use for geese? I use #2 for the first two shots and a T shot for the third.

    Re: waterfowl

    I reload BB for the first,second,and third shot on Geese. 1 1/4 oz of steel shot doing 1475 fps out of a Remington Premier 3 inch hull with Alliant steel powder. For ducks I use a combination of #2, and #3 shot in the same hulls. That way I never have to compensate for change in speed between duck and goose loads.

    I'm reading your post with a baited breath, Never pulled the trigger on a bird other than grouse before, sounds like fun.
