It varies I hunt flooded timber one day and open lake the next 20-40 yards is average though. I have no problem hitting birds I just want to improve my effective range without crippling birds. I've been using my full choke mostly but also use my modified on occasion. With both current chokes gun patterns high and left at 25 yards using steel shot.
