20 ga.? (GDG)

This past X-Mas my wife got me a sweet litl' O/U 20 Gauge. I've never owned or even shot a twenty so curious if this litl' upland gun can do double duty for waterfowl? If so any experience on non-tox loads to try? Or just trade it for a new 12ga.??
Thanks,
Peake

Within the limits of the 20 ga's range, you can kill ducks, geese without a problem. For pheasants, using # 6 lead, in 3", it's deadly.

For ducks & geese I use 3" magnum, # 4 Hevi-shot.

Mine's a 20 ga Benelli Montefeltro and a joy to carry and shoot.
