[ HUNTING AMMO // 10 GA ]
10 GAUGE · DUCKS
What we recommend for Ducks with a 10 ga shotgun, and a link to shop matching ammo at JJ Armory.
[ 10 GA // DUCKS ]
RECOMMENDED SHOT
3½" steel #2, #1, or BB
STEEL, LEAD, OR OTHER NON-TOXIC
Steel (or other approved non-toxic) — never lead
WHY
The 10 gauge’s heavy 3½" payload is made for big water and longer duck and goose shots. Winchester Drylok and Federal Black Cloud 10 gauge are typical.
Use a steel-rated choke, usually modified to full.
IN STOCK AT JJ ARMORY
The 10 gauge waterfowl load we have in stock is Winchester Drylok 3.5-inch #T steel (the listing titled “10 Gauge -3 1/2 inch 25rds”). #T is a large steel pellet, better for big ducks and geese than for close decoying teal. Never lead for waterfowl. Call (631) 985-5527 if you want a smaller 10 gauge steel size.
