[ HUNTING AMMO // 20 GA ]

What we recommend for Ducks with a 20 ga shotgun, and a link to shop matching ammo at JJ Armory.

[ 20 GA // DUCKS ]

RECOMMENDED SHOT

3" steel #2, #3, or #4 (or bismuth #2–#4)

STEEL, LEAD, OR OTHER NON-TOXIC

Steel, bismuth, or TSS — never lead

WHY

Same size window as 12 gauge, with a lighter 3-inch payload. Federal Speed-Shok, Winchester Xpert, Kent Teal, and Hevi-Bismuth 20 gauge are built for this.

2¾" steel can work at close decoying range if that is all the gun is chambered for.

In stock now: Hevi-Bismuth and Hevi-Steel 20 gauge 3-inch #2 (never lead for ducks). Kent Teal Steel and Winchester Xpert #6 are smaller steel loads for close-range or teal. Call (631) 985-5527 if you want another size.
