I guess they thought you were shooting late season giant Canadas at 40 yards
Even a big speck only weighs about 7 pounds I believe.
I center patterned a spoon at maybe 20 yards or so with a late season goose load. The breast looked like Swiss cheese from the BB's passing through it. They hit a teal with that, there won't be much left.

Those are the ones that broke my gun. I found them extremely hot.
3" #3's and #4's seemed to work pretty darn good on specks that got right.

Dave pegged it with "that got right". Light steel will crack a big goose's skull just fine at applicable range.
