Ok so the point of this thread is just to see gun everyone prefers to shoot and what shot shell they prefer. Whether it be a cheap federal or a high dollar fiochi. Include choke size to.
I normally use my Winchester 1200. But Sunday I'll be trying out my benelli nova with a mod. Choke. For shells I'll be using federal multipurpose loads. $20 for a half case and I have never had problem killing birds with them. What is everyone else's weapon and shell of choice. Good luck Sunday!

Beretta A300 Outlander with improved cylinder. Will be using Remington heavy dove in #8. Will be on a patch of red clay with gravel in the AM, and hope to hunt the tank in the PM, if there is any water.
My son will be hunting with the same setup. If one of the Outlanders fails, then I will go back to the tried and true Beretta O/U, and the boy will continue with the other Outlander.
Will be hunting with my dad and son, so good times no matter what.

I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

1950 Belgian 16ga A5
Full (old school really full) choke
English game loads in size 6 (equates to US #7 I think. Been a while sine I looked it up) with fiber wads.
I'm going to us up my considerable stash of 6s, 7s and 7.5s then sell the old gal. I probably won't have her but for another twenty years at my current pace.
;-)
Thought for the day: Ducks were almost hunted to extinction long before camo was invented.
