I'll be the Winchester supporter! But I also shoot a Winchester. They cycle fine and kill birds too. Plus those AA shells make good reloadable ammo.

Thats what I say ducksbucks. Win. just cycle better in my guns than Fed. do. But I do like kent fasteel, and Rem., and tungsten.
We shoot a lot of shells down here in South Arkansas and price starts to be a factor, and the kent fasteel shells are hard to beat buy the case.
p.s. You northern boy need to quit making those duck so shy buy the time they get to arkansas they have seen, and heard it all.
ha! ha!

Well now P-Tone if you are ewferring to me as the northern boy all I can say is I'll just pass it on. Please send me a few more breeding ducks back up here in the spring. Just enjoy this great sport as much as I do and hopefully there will always be ducks enough to go around. Good luck this fall.

I dont like federal or winnchester is steel....I use the Remintons when I know I'm gonna get wet ,but I prefer estates over any if I can keep them dry...They're not real waterproof....The estates seem to travel farther and hit harder than the other three for me...I was walking from a slough in the river bottoms and walked up on a 400 pound hog...I killed that piglet with #2 estates.........RKC

We wait till you can see their eyes. They all work the same at 15 yards. But for the record, I prefer the Drylocks because I am still finding shells in the boat when crappie fishing starts.

Winchester shells are far superior to federal. I find that Federals do not deliver enoufgh of a punch to bring down a goose where as I have complete confidencr in a Winchester shell to do the job.
