Winchester they are all great I look at the size of the shot, the weight of the load and the feet per second and get the best I can afford. Shot size I like 3 the best but 2 and 4 are just fine. 2 is on the goose side and 4 on the duck side.

Yea you can't go wrong with Winchester Xpert shells. We bought Hevi Metal shells last season and I wasn't impressed at all!!!! So this year we went back to the Winchester shells. They always go bang and they will kill just as far as all the others. I personally like 2 shot for ducks. I use a Kicks High Flyer Full choke in my shotgun. That thing will rip em up....no complaints at all with that choke. Good luck opening day man i'll be out there shooting some ducks too. What area you going to be hunting?

I'll be honest with you I'm not to sure i think some where near Camden i am going with a buddies friends they are huge into it so hopefully it'll be a fun hunt. I can't imagine it wouldn't be. Be a great experience at least.

I gotcha well that is a good area for sure. And there is no doubt it will be a good time. I'm huge into it too. I normally try to atleast hunt 30 of the 60 day season. Can't get enough of that duck hunting man. We will be in Springville Bottoms.

Have a great time. If you are hunting the actual "Camden" bottoms, keep in mind that its not that way every where (you'll see what I mean)...although there are a few groups there that kill them right.
