    Favorite waterfowl shells?

    I've been using Winchester xpert HV 3" #2 shot for awhile now and have been lookin to mix it up a little bit this season and try something new. What has been your go to shell and what would your recommendations be for mallards?

    Ohh this is going to go and go and go.....

    I like #3's....

    Kent, 2 3/4" 1 1/4oz #3's are my pick if I can get them!

    That being said, I have used Blended for the win...on a number fo ocassions...

    I have never had much luck with Kent's, they jam in my guns. I prefer Winchester xpert #3's

    I to like Kents...I have had good luck and consistency with them for all but 1 batch of them that I had. #3 for ducks and a #1 for geese.

    I to have used many different brands, including the good ol' Xperts, my biggest factor was the speed, if its not 1500fps, then I shy away from it.

    Its funny, I used to pay extra for duplex shells with a mixture of 2 shot sizes in them, when all I had to do was shoot Xperts...

    Sunday ehh...I like your odds Ian!!!
