    selection of used guns includes 12 gauge shotguns like a Mossberg 500 or a .300 Winchester Magnum Shotgun,

    Won’t name names, but found this little tidbit today perusing used gun retailers and couldn’t help but laugh. I can imagine it would be one heck of a goose gun when 3 1/2 inches of 12 gauge power isn’t enough. rotflol rotflol

    Methinks I’d find a different gun dealer.

    Interesting.

    Of course, this begs the question, “Is this enough gun for long range hunting?” For example, say I want to be able to reach out and hammer a goose at 800 yards…

    Well I think that will depend more on your choke selection. Tight pattern up close might turn into the perfect goose sized spread at 800yds, but too loose and you’ll have holes for that goose to scoot through.
