A couple years ago, out of boredom my buddies and I made up a contest while hunkered down in one of our goose pits. We challenged each other to kill at least one goose that season with each of the common gauges- 10 through .410. We all pulled it off by the end of the season, then a wise guy showed up with a 14 gauge muzzle loader and broke the tie.
It wasn't the stunt you might think it was with the .410. We gun over decoys, are blessed with tons of geese, and can pick and choose our shots. Let a honker come in low and slow, wait until it's 20 yards away, and aim for the head. Bingo, the .410 with a load of #6 Bismuth puts them down.
