pheasant question!!!!

[MAG 1]

So my daughter got drawn for the pheasant hunt out at Wister this weekend

as was wondering does she have to use STEEL or can she use LEAD shot.

called to ask and no one seems to be able to give a sure answer.

any input would help thanks

Can I shoot full choke with those, or do I need to step down to modified?

 

[Huntndogs]

Mod should be fine IMO...What is she shooting?

 

[Gspman]

I only use modified also. Seams to work fine. I'll be out at wister sunday and in the valley for the weekend. What day is the hunt sat or sun? Need a dog handler?

 

[MAG 1]

She shoots a 20. We will be out on Saturday if your there we'd love to have you.

 

[Gspman]

My wife shot a 20 for a whole lot of years.

I'm planning on hitting the valley late Friday or very early Saturday with my wife son and dog. I'd love to work the dog more and help out.

I have been shooting a 20 this season for pheasant. I'm sure you and your daughter will have a blast..

Mark,

A modified choke actually patterns tighter with steel than it does with lead.....Change to standard modified.....Do NOT shoot steel threw a lead full choke.....Her 20 gauge will be fine for these birds.

May see you out there.


ps.......This is a family hunt and all participants have been signed up.
