pretty much my line of thought Dean- I used the smaller shot back then in areas where I had closer shots and over decoys
I seem to remember seeing more broken wings with the pattern density (although we are dating our selves here ) - so if it as not a clean kill (still the goal) at least a recoverable duck.
I think Nice Shot is just a very little denser than lead - I still have some lead 4's - i will try to find some time to count out an equal number of lead and NS and weigh them to see what that shows. Then I will have a better feeling for the effectiveness of the 6's
