I know it's only June, but I'm thinking of dove season this September. I will most likely be using a 20 gauge mossberg 500 with a field barrel this time and on public land. What steel shot size should I use? In 12 gauge I used #6, so would I want almost #4 in 20 gauge? Any and all help would be appreciated.
for things shotgun, shotgunworld forums are pretty good.
i've used steel for dove, but only because it was free. here is a link the the shotgun world site, with the discussion about size and gauge. some of the posts are specific to what folks are using with a 20.
hope it helps.
