Either skeet, IC, LM or Mod.
It depends.
First day, probably skeet with cheap shells on uneducated birds if I can hide under the tree they always use as a waypoint when flying.
By the third day will be in the neighborhood of modified with remi express long range.
Thought for the day: Ducks were almost hunted to extinction long before camo was invented.

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!

I used Mod on my 20 this weekend. I went 8 for 21. I usually use IC on my 12 but I am going with Mod on it too. Now If I am hunting a small tank then IC all the way.

I like full choke... gotta reach out there and knock em down...
I use to use a mod choke but noticed a lot of my birds were just losing feathers. Switched to a full and started having a lot higher kill ratio.
