What size shot?

Number 2's going at an average speed are good to 55 yards. I don't hunt snows, but I wouldn't think anything larger would be needed, would it?

I use #1

I second #1's. Good for all waterfowl.

Use #1's on everything including snows.

I love #1's for everything...

Kent 3 1/2 inch one shot seems to be all I buy anymore besides a box of #4s for early season woodies n teal

i use 3 1/2 inch hevimetal 2's and BB's

Shoot what patterns well in your gun for the choke size you choose. Anything from 4's to BB work well on Snow Geese.

How long have #1's been around? Is everybody using them? Are they now the most popular shot size for goose and even duck?

sometimes hard to find, but I have used #1 Kent 3" for a lot of years, plenty to kill a decoying goose OR duck. I like them.

Black Cloud has a snow goose load and I've heard good things about Remington Hypersonic 1700fps loads. I have not shot either but I like regular Black Cloud in 3" #2's or #4's for ducks and 3.5" BB for canadas.
