Re: lead We used 2 3/4" #6. And alot of low brass at that. I can remember the old guys talking the city folks that had to use those 3" magnum canon shells to kill their ducks.

Re: lead I guess the high brass #6 I used was overkill, but it would knock the $hit out of em

Re: lead High brass 6's were awsome. We used dove loads on teal. There is no comparison between lead and steel. Steel has come a long way but it still is not as effective as lead,if it was you would not see all these high dollar composite loads.

Re: lead 2 3/4" high brass #4's were bad to the bone.
And I faithfully hunted with my grandpaw's old Model 12. It was my go to duck gun. |
