Good for upland huntingThis Fall I had an opportunity to hunt at a game preserve/hunting lodge in Central Michigan. The DNR requires them to use steel shot which was a little bit of a problem as I hunt with a Citori 20 gauge.
I used Winchester's Xpert Hi-Velocity shotshells in 20 gauge, 3 inch, 7/8 oz, with #4 shot. The results on pheasant and chuckers was very satisfactory, at one time I hit 9 straight.
I feel that these are 25 yard shotshells. Pellet energy and pattern density suffer beyond this range so you may need to pass up some shots.
Would I rather use lead shotshells? Yes, but let's face it, we will see increasingly restrictive rules on lead in the future.

Best duck loadI have duck and goose hunted for 45 years. For the price this is the best load i have ever used. The 3 shot worked way better then i expected. Great penetration and patterns.

Not great for tough ducksWe hunt Sea Ducks offshore in tough conditions. These are fine for warm weather, easy decoying birds, but I'm disappointed at the birds lost at fair ranges (30-40 yds) once they've gotten a bit decoy shy in cold, below freezing weather. Not sure whether it's a question of pattern density or retained energy, but we require too many follow up shots when birds end up heads up on the water after crumpling from a fair hit mid-air. Still looking for the (maybe imaginary) reasonably priced alternative to #5 lead shot in my 1971 3" Browning Side x Side.

Most versatile load I have foundStarted shooting this load years ago. I have found it to be an excellent performing load. I use it on everything from ducks to pheasants and chukar. I shoot with a stock improved cylinder choke which patterns like full choke would with lead. Love this load.

What type of choke should i use with a steel shot ?
Asked by: buck1234
First, always check to see if you can even fire steel shot through your existing choke/s.
If you are using the stock chokes that came with your gun, I wouldn't recommend going more than modified. If you use an aftermarket choke, they are designed to handle steel shot and you can purchase up to Extra Full chokes. Be careful not to shoot anything larger than BBB to BB through Full or Extra Full Chokes.
If in doubt, ALWAYS contact the choke manufacturer to double check. I would hate to hear about someone destroying their gun, or worse, injuring themselves or someone around them, by firing the wrong shot through the wrong choke.
To answer your question, Improved Cylinder for Decoying Ducks (10-30yds), Modified (15-40yds), and Full or Extended Choke for shots over 40 yards and up to 75yds. Modified and Full chokes also work well for pass shots as well.
