Sam,
shoot those geese. Not just for the dog to pick up.
Strip the breast out thin. Knife or slicer. It is great grilled on a stick after a ride in marinade like teriyaki. Jerky is also a crowd fav. Never any leftover.
Drumsticks and thigh go in Gumbo but that is a bit more work.

YMMV

223 will save on meat damage.
Unlike that cock it does not taste just like chicken.... or a shoveler.


I used to only shoot shotguns and rimfires, then I made the mistake of getting a subscription to handloader.......
