[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3704138, member: 15054"] I hunted ducks with a 20 single shot before steel shot was on the scene. Man i had a lot of issues killing them dead. I used #4 lead and probably should have stepped up the size. I later got a 12 gauge pump and WOW what a difference that made. I shot 2 3/4 #4 from it and ducks died quickly. I quit after steel shot came around until a couple years ago and I shot 2 Canadians with #4 steel. Yep was not a good load. I stripped off my clothing down to my whitey tighties and ran into the water to get the birds before they could fly away wounded. Have not shot waterfowl since. I have steel BB now for the 12 gauge. I used to dump my #4 lead loads and fill the case with copperhead BB's back in the early 80's to reach way out. They held pattern farther out than the lead. [/QUOTE]
