After checking prices on bismuth, I've decided to shoot up the steel I have on hand. I'm a firm believer on Hevi-shot and bismuth for my "unmentionables" but, on a fixed income, it's simply too high for me. If the ducks will decoy in close, I'm ok with steel.
 
No doubt that I can kill ducks with steel. My problem is with using the plastic shot cups and reloading efficiently. What’s your location John
N.E. Missouri (Hannibal area). My waterfowling has pretty well gone by the wayside in recent years due to deaths of hunting/fishing friends, bypass heart surgery, and predictable life changes - retirement, moving to our farm and relocation to Florida of my best waterfowling bud, Layout boat trailer tires flat, decoys gathering mud daubers, and my black lab (Magnum) died. Woodies on my creek and longshot possibility of passing geese in fields will be about "it" for me now. Wade n' shoot would have me joining the "hat floater club" before I got the decoys set. Anyway...I have turkeys to scare yet this fall and have never killed one with my flint fowler. Not complaining since at my age every morning I wake up and not see the underside of grass is a gift.
