For waterfowl hunting, steel shot pellets are commonly used due to regulations prohibiting lead shot in many areas. Sizes such as BB, 2, or 4 are popular choices, depending on the species being hunted and the shooting distance. Some hunters also opt for non-toxic alternatives like bismuth or tungsten for improved performance and effectiveness. Always check local regulations for specific requirements regarding pellet types and sizes.
