No pictures, though before the lead ban I used an AYA "Matador" 10 bore SxS for geese. I opened the chokes up a bit as they were too tight and ended up with handloads putting 94% of the pattern into 30" with the right barrel and 96% wit the left barrel, at 40yards.
That was a goose slaying machine. Terrific on ducks as well with 2oz. #4 shot out to 80yards, same on geese with 2 oz. #2's or #3's in Blymeister Alberta shot. High antimony, very hard shot - beautiful patterns.
Duck sil. at 40 yards took 184 hits with 2oz. of #5's. Couldn't use it for ducks over decoys, only for pass shooting at longer than normal ranges. It just hammered them.

Just remembered the name, Matador, so I edited my original post.
