I'll stick with fast steel. Works just fine for me. However, I've had friends who hunt sea ducks (eiders, scoters and the like) tell me they use Hevi-shot #6s and they do very well. Small shot for big birds but they shoot 'em in the lips.

I thought the lips were the only vital area on waterfowl. You mean to tell me I could be aiming for other areas than d'em lips?
