Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Fiocchi Flyway Steel #2 load suitable for hunting geese, or is it better for ducks?
The #2 steel shot at 1,500 FPS makes this load versatile enough for both ducks and early-season or close-range goose hunting. For larger Canada geese at longer distances, you may want to consider a larger shot size like BB or BBB, but for moderate-range shots and most duck species, the #2 load delivers excellent pattern density and energy transfer.
Is this ammunition safe to use in my 20-gauge shotgun's choke?
Steel shot requires a choke rated for steel use. You should use an Improved Cylinder or Modified choke at the tightest — never use Full or Extra-Full chokes with steel shot, as the hardness of steel can damage or deform non-steel-rated choke tubes. Always verify your choke is marked or rated for steel shot before use, and consult your firearm's owner manual if you're unsure.
How does the 20-gauge 3" Flyway Steel compare to a 12-gauge steel load for waterfowl?
A 20-gauge 3" steel load naturally carries less shot than most 12-gauge options, resulting in slightly less pattern density at longer ranges. However, for hunters who prioritize a lighter gun, faster swing, and reduced felt recoil — especially in timber hunting or over decoys at moderate ranges — the 20-gauge Fiocchi Flyway Steel is an effective and enjoyable choice. It's particularly well-suited for shots inside 35–40 yards.
