Best Waterfowl Load

[Redleg Camo]

What do you guys think is the best all around waterfowl load? Considering price and performance. What shot size,brand, shell length?

[highballing22]

kents 3" 3's

[PBiz]

I would say 3.5" Hevi-shot #6s (hard to find) or 3.5" Kent Faststeel #3s.

[dukhuntr]

2 3/4" 1 3/8oz #4 lead Best there every was! #6's if woodies and teal.

[otterdog83]

I like the Kent FastSteel 3'' #3 with my long range PatternMaster and Federal's Black Cloud #3 in a Mod choke if I know passing shots are my only option.

[FEETDOWN]

2 3/4" 1 3/8oz #4 lead Best there every was! #6's if woodies and teal.

I like the 2 3/4" copper plated 5's myself. Shoot da woodies with 7.5's

[skybustin]

3 1/2" Black Cloud #2's are the way to go with the kicks black cloud choke.

[AH HOLY]

I shoot 3in #2's, i have found it works for me.

[duckduckdog]

3" Hevi-Shot #4..... Expensive enough to make to really think about your shot! :-)

[Sportin' Woodies]

keep shooting kent.
but federal ultrashoks work much better for 10% more.

[Swamp Rat]

I still kinda like the Kents, but the recurring reports of misfires and such last year had me switch to Federal Ultrashoks, and I have not been disappointed.

I typically shoot 3" #2's

[BigBallin]

which ever one you put in the back of the ford before we head west

[Tha Dick]

Which ever one patterns in yo gun the best.

[Southernduck]

I love the Kent 3" #3's and plan to keep shooting them. I have heard a few people say they blew up their barrels shooting Kent (and everyone who said this was shooting a Benelli). Anyone have any comment about this on the Kents?

[dukhuntr]

JAB(I belive it was) had a video posted of if that happening while they were in Canada last year.

[Formerly Cut 'Em]

Yeah I shot and continue to shoot Kent 3" #2's. I own a Browning Gold Hunter and had a couple of Kent misfire and one blow up in the barrell last season. They came from a case I bought early before the season in back to back boxes. I sent the remaining shells back to Kent and have yet to hear what the verdict was. Think it was just a bad couple of shells. Scared the hell out of me though when I was looking directly at the action which was shooting fire out of it right in my face. And thank god I didnt shoot the second shell cause the wad was stuck in the barrell. But shot shells upon shells in Texas/Canada/SC last year and only had a couple of problems. They are working well this year. I think the shells were soaked in water is what the problem was, which is kind of an oxymoron.
