I shot some Migra last season (2022/2023) in Arkansas, Kansas, and Texas and they seemed pretty solid. I think they did better than my go to Black Cloud, going to test them vs Rio Blue Steel and the Black Cloud on pattern shortly with all my chokes.
I've pattern tested the migra 2/3 shot out of my Remington v3 waterfowl pro with a carlsons cremator mid range. It has an amazing pattern from 20 , 30, and 40 yards I got 8 boxes to use this season!! My new go to shell too!!
Gun patterns a little high but overall looks good. I shoot the 2/3 or the 2/4 also I prefer 2/3 but I haven’t pattern out of my a5 with a kicks choke yet. Probably should get on that lol
It appears that way because he's shooting a target that's standing still. When a duck goes whizzing through the air, a lot less pellets are probably going to end up hitting it because they're moving so fast. I totally get where you're coming from because I just started hunting a couple years ago and I was worried about the same thing at first. If it's your first year, my best advice would be to buy cheaper shells until you get really good at shooting. Remember, NO MATTER HOW EXPENSIVE THE SHELLS ARE, NONE OF THAT MATTERS UNTIL YOU ARE CONSISTENTLY HITTING KILL SHOTS. I know that sounds like I'm stating the obvious but, it took me a little while to understand that. I started out shooting cheap shells, then I bought black clouds and other premium loads, and now I'm back to cheap shells because I've learned that your accuracy means so much more than what type of shell. Also, your number 1 priority should be getting the ducks in your decoy spread as close as possible before you should ever worry about your shotgun, shot shells, choke tubes, or anything like that. Super glad to see a new hunter doing his share of research! Good luck!!
@@charlesmarshall5387 thank you very much. I can only find pricey shells locally right now unfortunately. I did find some Winchester super x number two. I have a dozen decoys and found a used beretta a300 outlander. It came with two carlsons chokes. The close range and medium range. I have a cheap call and some farm king waders. Can't wait to get to it. Thanks again for the advice! God bless P.s. been practicing on squirrels for now. Those little suckers are fast!
@@deltafowlers4648 how’s the pattern at 20 yards? I have the cr witch is a .700 witch does great out to 30. I’m looking for something that’s good from there on or 20 on
@@shelbylester9930 I didn't shoot it at 20 yards but would imagine it would be a great pattern. A little tighter of a pattern compared to the 30 yards.
Would you think the 2/4 Stack would be a good all around load for both duck and goose? I got 4 boxes of 2/bb, but wanted to get a case. Don’t know which stack to go with.

Your pattern tests are the best out there 👍🏻👍🏻

I shoot the migra 2/3 3” out of my sbe3 and absolutely love them they are my go to shell for sure
I tried the 2/4 out of my retay 12 with a .695 high voltage. They pattered awesome at 30 yards.
I plan on patterning my Retay 20ga with the Migra 2/3 sometime before season. I'm looking forward to seeing how it patterns.
Retay's shoot migra really well I only shoot migra out of it for waterfowl
I'll be checking them out

Great shells just don’t like the white hulls
I agree
Wonder how that would pattern with a5 or maxus ii with the Carlson cremator and 3” 2/4 load
And how far was that?! Dont recall u sayin the yardage
25 yards
First season for me. Isn't that a lot of damaged meat? Serious question. It's all new to me. Thanks

@@charlesmarshall5387 well said!!
For your pattern did u aim Dead center or alittle low because for my A5 I have to aim really low so when I duck hunt I miss alot
I aim dead center
Sounds like you need to increase the drop on your stock.
Did you buy the .690 or the 695 jebs choke
.690

@@johnwalker1848 yes. That is one of the reasons I went with the 2/4 stack.
Was this 40 yards?
30 yards
