Re: Help with ammo and chokes 4 first ever Duck hunt?

I use a light modified choke and 3" #3's Kents. Chokes are labelled Browning Grand Passage but are made by Briley and you can get them for just about any shotgun. The light modified is in between an IC and mod. Don't get wrapped up in the new Blindside or Black Cloud shells. In my experience they are not worth the extra cost and I have shot both and other new fancy shells over the last few years. I have more clean kills with the cheaper Kents. I agree you need to pattern your gun.

Also duck hunting is dirty and nasty. If your o/u is nice like so many are, be prepared for it to get muddy or wet. You can keep it clean but be mentally prepared to get dirty. Main thing is to have fun and get ready for a new addiction.

Edited to add:
Since you already have a full set of chokes, put the IC in the first tube and Mod in the second. Should work just fine.
