Duck duck I want a goose !
2 Attachment(s)
We did the goose thing this morning on a farm pond . Saw maybe 400 geese but none would cup their wings and come in . Had my circa 1899 EH 3 frame 32” with me shooting handloaded #1 Bismuth pushed with SR7625 .

We’ll try it again Friday. Might just take my Grade 2 10 top lever for a change of luck .

Still a nice way to spend a Tuesday :) That is a nice 10 gauge! I would like to add an EH to my collection one day. Good luck on Friday!

Craig- best wishes for the goose with the EH. I too have a EH 3 frame 32 inch barrel made in 1899. SN 91071. I killed a lot of geese this year and got many of them with the EH. It killed the biggest goose I or my partner had ever seen around here. Two ounces shy of 14 pounds. Love that gun. No cripples. I used RST 2’s as they (RST) believe they pattern best. I don’t know. I used to hunt in the Valley out by Harrisonburg when I lived in Falls Church. Field hunting. As we say, “Take ‘em!” Good luck. Jeff

At the moment I have a dozen or so 10’s and as the saying goes “If the good Lords willing” I wanna kill a goose with each of them !

Thanks for the information! I like the way way you load the bismuth. I do it that way with 1 1/4 oz 12 gauge. Slow but how many do we get to shoot anyway? I probably will get into 10 gauge reloading but I would rather not. Best of luck out there. I’d post a EH goose photo but I m not very good at it.

One Big Ten is enough right now. I may buy a 6 frame 10 from a fellow trapshooter if he ever wants to get rid of it. I probably wouldn’t shoot it. Have you ever tried to sit up in a layout blind with one of those beasts. Scary.
