Paper, plastic, anything that would go in the big end. People talk all the time about 2 3/4" shells. But Feds are the only 16's that are 2 3/4", the others are a little short of that. Same way with 20ga shells. My favorite shells to shoot are the Fed Game shoc loads. Well made, quality product, hard shot and shoot soft and inexpensive. Order them 4-5 cases at a time and they work fine from everything from targets to pheasant and prairie grouse. Shot huns and sharptails with it around Boissevain (south of Brandon) and over to Estevan. Big, open wheat fields, great people and lots of birds. We used to run intercepts with your boys out of RCAF Moose Jaw so I got to fly over all that area.
The heavy, fast magnum loads are hard on the shoulder and I don't shoot them much except for tough pheasant late season. Not something I'd go shoot 100 rounds sporting clays with.
The numbers can pile up when its decent weather and I shoot a couple full rounds of sporting clays in a day.
