Chessie, I am glad you like #1's. We are headed to Sask. In Sept. for a duck/goose hunt. We decided to try 1's to avoid swapping shells. It will be mostly big ducks, how are they on others?

In response to the OP, I bought a 20ga sx-3 last year. I shot it in the marsh last year. Great for ducks in decoys. The noticable drop in recoil from my SBE is great. I found a case of Kent 3's for a great price. I should be set.

Not sure what others you are talking about but during big duck season when everybody is switching shells with greys and specks overhead I'm calling with kent (usually) 3.5" #1s 1 9/16 ounce. This load and my patternmaster extended range is fricken nasty. Under 40 yards I usually don't even shoot geese to the ground (fault I know). If I feel good on the shot I'm finding his buddy. Yeah it might look like a teal breast got hit with a rpg but last year the water was deep and the dog had to work his arse off for cripples from everybody shooting improved cylinder and #4s. If there's 6 birds on the water and I know I don't really have to watch where mine fall I can help the dog mark birds and bust it down the levee or whatever.
