Ditto what skeet said. That is exactly what I was thinking, but I have been doing so many tax returns this week that I didn't have the time or the will power to put it in writing.
I have killed birds at 60 yards, but that was always with BB's or larger and usually with T's. After reading an article about what shot is best for geese, the article concluded that T shot is the best shot size for geese and I agree. That is all I buy in steel if I am going to use steel. Hevi-shot B shot is amazing. That stuff packs so much energy it is unbelievable.
As far as the number of geese I have killed, it is probably around 500 without looking back at records. I have been hunting them for about 8 years now and for at least 3 of those years I killed over 100 birds. Granted, some were dumber than others and easier to kill, but I have had some tough days, especially this past season.
