I've used a 20ga on Geese for years. Tungsten Matrix would be my first choice in factory loads but Remington and Saga Steel are both good to. I mainly use Steel homeload but a friend loaded some 1oz 3 Hevi Shot for my Grandson The results have to be seen to believe. No matter what you use get them in range get up front of the Goose and enjoy good results oh and I use 1/4 an 1/2 Extended Steel prof chokes

Hi

I was just wondering if there is a 20g cartridge that would be sutible for geese decoying ?

Cheers

Not my first choice but you can kill anything with anything if you get the correct range. One guy I know of says he uses a .410 occasionally for the crack choosing only very low birds. I was testing some no.5 .410 lead today, 138 pellets in 2ft at 25 yards so I guess if it were legal they should kill a goose head and neck if it were legal.

 

If you have the choice choose a bigger gun, but paddles down over the top of the decoys and assuming they are Canadas on general licence at this time of year, cant see why not
