Default RE: choke for geese

IMO if you are shooting steel look at BBB out to 50 yds.
Steel looses to much at longer ranges ,50 is about the ethical max.
Yes you can brake a honkers wing or luck out and hit the neck or head at longer ranges .
But you will wound lots more than you will kill , lots of witch will fly away making you think you missed and then die later.
Also the birds will be harder to call in next time. Call the birds in close.
If you want to shoot farther use Hevi shot !!!!!!!!!!!!
