Default steel shot

loaded up some 1 ounce stell bb loads last night in 2 3/4 12 ga...not to many bbs in a 1 ounce load...i tried pattering them this afternoon and i was a little disappointed in the results...i used a 30 inch circle and distance was 45 yards...patterns were jagged and not uniform....but they would have killed a big duck or goose in my opinon but i now see the need for the 3 inch or better yet 3 1/2 inch hulls...reason longer the hull more bbs or steel shot it would hold....so in my opinon the 2 3/4 inch in steel shot with bbs or other large shot is barely good enough for the big ducks and geese... what say ye duck and goose hunters on my findings..... charlie
