#3, 3 1/2" Estates

I tried #2 and #3 Federal, Winchester, Remington, and Estates. I like the pattern that I get in my gun with the #3 Estates.

Drylock steel 2 3/4" #4s at the beginning, #2s the rest of the season, except in the timber. We use #6s there because the shooting is SO CLOSE!! [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]

Kent 3 1/2" #2's seem to work best for me. On the occasion I spoil myself and buy Bismuth I like #4's.
