Winchester Dry-Lok HV in 3" (1 1/8oz) with #4, #2, BB and 3 1/2" (1 3/8oz) with #2, BB.
They pattern well in all of my guns/chokes, never give me any problems, they hit hard with very few cripples, and are inexpensive.

Steel- Federal Ultra Shok is some good stuff.

Kent impact is also good for premium non toxic shells.

My favorite shell is 3.5" Hevi-shot BB, Kent Impact #1s are good too.

For Steel I like the Federals and Kent the best. All 3.5" for geese BB and 3" and 3.5" 3s for ducks.
