Personally I would stick with the larger shot between #2’s and BB’s. But that’s just me. Good Luck...

I would go with the #2 shot...it's a good compromise...large enough to bring down geese provided you aren't sky bustin and it's not overkill on woodies and ringnecks. Probably about perfect for the mallards.

Good luck!
