I have been duck hunting several times this season with my Pedersoli 12ga sxs.It has screw-in chokes and I have a mod on one side and a full on the other.I killed three ducks the other day.Two were long shots and one was at least a 50 yard shot.I was very pleasantly surprised.I'm using #4 ITX shot 1 and 1/4 oz with slightly less Goex by volume.I was hunting with a buddy using a modern pump shotgun.We killed four.I killed three of them.That is the most yet for me in a single day.I've killed two a few times but never three.Don't let anyone tell you that you are handicapped with a ML shotgun.I wanted to post a pic but it said to enter a url.What is that?
 
Well done!
Just getting ready to put bacon wrapped duck on the grill for the family! Late Christmas get together.
I have found using" black powder" the secret is... call them in close and hit them hard.
Prefer Hevi-shot glad to hear the ITX is doing the job.
Happy hunting....Dan

I'm sure hooked on 1 1/4 oz of ITX #4 for ducks too. Kinda funny looking, but it sure patterns well and kills well.

Keep it up! :thumbsup:

You have to have your pictures uploaded to a photo hosting website like Flickr or Photobucket. Once uploaded, you can copy the image URL (IMG) and paste it into your post. When you save your post it captures the picture from the photo hosting site.

Congrats on some fine wing shooting! :hatsoff:
