RE: 20 gauage for ducks?
One of my partners on my duck club shoots nothing but a 20 guage. He shoots 3" 4s. There is also a club just north of Sacramento, a very good duck club, that only allows 20 gauges, NO 12 guage guns at all on that club.

RE: 20 gauage for ducks?
I shoot a Beretta 391 20 gauge. My girlfriend shoots a 390 20gauge. We have shot both ducks and geese with them. We keep our shots inside 40 yards.... no issues.
I like Hevi-shot #4s for geese. Even for decoying geese with the 20 like an Improved Modified choke tube.
For ducks, Kent Fast Steel 3" 7/8oz of #2 or #3 at 1550fps. I like the Light mod choke in my gun, Rebecca shoots an IC.
