Uses of Goose Loads in 12 Gauge

  1. Goose Hunting: 12-gauge goose  loads are specifically designed for hunting geese. They typically contain larger shot sizes, such as BB or T shot, which provide adequate power and range to effectively take down geese.
  2. Effective Range: They are optimized for longer ranges, allowing hunters to engage geese at distances where standard loads might be less effective.
  3. Non-Toxic Requirement: In many areas, steel shot is required for waterfowl hunting due to regulations aimed at protecting the environment from lead contamination. Therefore, 12-gauge goose loads often utilize steel shot to comply with these regulations while still providing effective performance.
  4. Versatility: While primarily used for goose hunting, 12-gauge loads can also be suitable for hunting other large game birds, such as turkeys or swans, especially when larger shot sizes are preferred.
  5. Customization: Manufacturers offer a variety of 12-gauge goose loads with different shot sizes, velocities, and payload configurations, allowing hunters to choose the most suitable load for their specific hunting conditions and preferences.

FAQs About Snow Goose Ammo

  1. Recommended Gauge and Shot Size: For snow goose hunting, a 12-gauge shotgun is commonly recommended, although 10-gauge can also be suitable. Shot sizes such as #1, BB, or B are often used effectively for snow geese.
  2. Best Load for Snow Geese: The 2 ¾” #3/5 Shorty is often regarded as one of the best loads for snow geese. This duplex load is known for its adaptability and effectiveness.
  3. Quantity of Ammunition: For a typical 3-day snow goose hunt, it’s recommended to bring at least a case of ammunition. If using an extension tube, two cases of ammunition may be appropriate.
  4. Long-Range Snow Goose Ammo: Federal Speed Shok or Remington Sportsman 3 1/2″ 1 3/8 oz BB shot at 1550 fps is considered effective for longer ranges. These loads are capable of penetrating to kill or break major wing bones at extended distances.
  5. Shot Size Preference: Some hunters prefer shot size #2 for snow geese, as it provides more pellets and ensures effectiveness, especially considering the lack of a fat layer on spring snow geese.
