joel, around here most everyone is using the big stuff, 3-3.5" full choke supermags. Also, my son uses mixed shot for geese has some odd looking bizmoth or something like that and of different size & shape. Way different from when I shot ducks and geese using just #4 buckshot or BB size in a 3" mag. After lead was banned, steel was not a good substitute so they created all the superloads that sell like they are made of gold!
