i was wondering not because of cost, but i just want the most range out of my 20. i was thinking remington express long range? theyre only 2 3/4, but the velocity is 1220fps, and shooting 5s, i think that would be my best bet. fiocchi 3s were the other choice, but im not sure their velocity.
and let me back track a little. i hunt state stocked birds in nj. they arent the greatest, smartest birds out there. i usually hunt with anywhere from 2 to 6 guys without a dog. these other guys arent the greatest shots, and when a bird gets up and they miss, i dont want to be too far away to drop it. i hunted with a 12ga last year and dropped 9 out of every 10 they missed. i got a great deal on a new browning citori white lightning 20ga, 26" that im going to use for birds and rabbits. and thats why i was wondering about the shell size
