So what is everyone's opinions on what shot size and choke to use for general duck season?

[JustTakeMeHunting14]

ive used anything from #4 to #2 shot in black cloud ammunition and have had very good success. as for chokes I change them out according to cover, setup, and decoys to try to predict what range birds will be flying in to. However, it would not be unwise to maintain the ability to reach out to a longer distance. Some birds might take a few more pellets than they needed but in my opinion there is not a huge difference between dead and more dead

Over decoyz, Hevi-Shot 12 ga 3" #6 @ 1550 fps and Imp Cyl izza bout it. See Dawg n Dux in mah photos.

Ah dunno, works for me...

I use a Improved Modified and Winchester Xpert # 3s and 2s.

For all-around use, I like #4 Hevi-Shot in a modified choke.

I leave the IC in year round, usually throwing #4 Xperts. When they have the landing gears down in the dekes they aren't tough to kill.

Improved Modified choke with 3" #4 shot Federal Black Cloud. Seems to drop'em pretty well.
