Any recommendation for shot size on a driven bird pheasant hunt? Thinking lead #6 shot, similiar to pass shooting ducks. ------------- “ The IQ and the life expectancy of the average American recently passed each other in opposite directions.” |

 The Last Castle hunt I was on I used #5 tungsten .RIGHT!I'll bet #6 or #5 1 3/8 load and improved choke would kill them very nicely.  ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

I always used #6 lead when I had my bird dogs. I never had a problem with it. ------------- I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on. |
