cmcnabb 09-18-2012 10:49 AM

Damn thats some big shells for teal. I shoot low brass #7 out a 20 gauge and smoke them. Plus they are like 6 bucks a box versus 13 or 14

10 4 on bein free, I would shoot em too. Or sell em lol. As far as big ducks, #6 will smoke a big duck with no problem. I use 2 3/4 but if I was given 3 inch I would shoot em too

If you have to post an iphone snap shot to prove to everyone on a forum you shot a duck at 70 yds. you obviously havent shot many ducks in your day. Or just started hunting.

Whaaaat? They didn't believe me so I proved it. The thread is about the kent TealSteel so I was saying how I liked em and what remarkable distance they kill birds. A #6 at that far is saying something. "w" is that you? Not about me and how good I am and im 26 and been hunting ducks since 6 so if you call that just starting then yea I just started 20yrs ago

bbrown 09-20-2012 02:58 PM

How is a picture of somebody's opinion proving anything. I can get somebody to text me i hit one at 120 yards and that is not a fact. I shoot kent Kent Faststeel 6's and I agee they are a very nice shell. 70 yards is the equivalent of standing on a goal line of a football field and shooting to the oposite 30 yard line. Go shoot a patternboard at 70 and see how tight that is. You also have to look at wind direction and the momentum it fell, a bird can fall 10 yards one direction after you hit it. Saying you killed a bird at 70 is way different than picking one up 70 yards

DUCKGOGETTER 09-20-2012 03:08 PM

Fellas it can be done, i know a guy that will knock them out the stratospere with a 12 gauge shooting 3 inch #4's. Ask salteredneck he was with us one morning in grand chenier last season.
