You've got enough dog. Why you shooting that crap ?
I shoot the blue box Fed 3" and 3.5" #3's. Late last season I switched to the Fiocchi Golden Goose #1's because we had several high wind days in the pit. They're bad to the bone.
I can't ever find those fiocchis
DNW in Jonesboro is the only place I've ever seen them for sale.

I shoot the Winchester Hi Velocity 3" #2's. I can usually get a case for under $120 and I never have problems with them.

Same here.
Get'em close - kill'em close.

.......I keep a few Hevi-Shot #6's in the bag for tipped 'swimmers' (at home)

Otherwise, the dog takes care of cripples.

SWAG,
Where do you get your 1 3/8 oz. 3" shells? That's what I prefer in Kents but they're hard for me to find. I haven't tried the Rios, but would love to try those #5's.

Hawks in Blytheville usually has the best price on Kent 3" 1 3/8 oz...I like the #3's for an all around shot size.

Lakeway Archery in Grenada. They usually have lots more of the 1 1/4 oz 3" shells, but will have a few cases of the 1 3/8. I love the 1 3/8 oz. Imp Cyl in brakes and woods is great. I have shot some Kent shells in the past and was pleased. Hoping Rio shells will be available before the season.
