New duck hunter needs advice on shells.

You are essentially shooting slugs at the ducks. Id switch to a more open choke. The SXP uses invector plus so based on the chart you posted. Looks like your Jebs is tighter then a turkey choke.

That's what it looks like. I will not be using those anymore LOL.

I would if I was turkey hunting. I bought the patternmaster code black goose for my SXP and now have it in my SX4. It’s the only choke I use after early teal season.

I'm kind of new to the duck hunting world. Been deer hunter all my life. Have a buddy that offer to take me duck hunting 2 years ago when he got a duck boat. Kind of hooked now LOL. Alot to digest because so much out there. I have a winchester sxp shoot gun and have jeb .690 choke. Very expensive to buy a bunch of different brand shells to shoot. Does anyone have this setup to give advice on the shells that patterns the best? I know it's kind of a loaded (pun intended lol) question. Different brand guns shoot different chokes and shells different. Just curious is all.

Kent or Hevi Shot. Bismuth if you can afford it. Both brands also offer pretty good discounts for military/veteran or LEO if that applies to you. Good luck!

Use a modified choke, shot #2s 3", I like 1 1/4 or 1 1/5 oz. I just buy cases from Rogers sporting goods, Federals for early season or ducks and Fiocchi's when I get more serious. Bismuth is great and works well, but I have not felt the need to switchover.

One advantage. You either hit it or dont. Not going to be much in between.
