re: Which gun for geese?

Seen that happen with 3.5" BB's too. They're tough.

Like other said, lead and shoot for the head on crossing/passing shots. If straight up shoot at the wing to bring them down. Instead of squaring up on them, I shoot the armpit, where the wing meets the body. Still lead them, but just get a little left or right of center.

When goose hunting last week I was using 3" BB and I would watch the bird take a hit and recuperate and fly off like nothing happened. The steel couldnt penetrate anything

We shot a few last weekend with 3" 3's. Shot 2 specks stone dead and winged 2 snows. Dogs had a blast with them. These birds were not decoying as we were setup for ducks and didnt have any goose decoys out.
