Harold....If you shoot a 16 this late in the season you will need 1oz of 5# shot going 1250 to 1300 FPS and one good tight choke too! Don't handicap yourself or Mike will kill all the birds with his 4 shot load he likes! If you can find some 16 ga. Nobil Sport Hunting loads in number 4# shot those shoot extra tight, they work very good in open chokes. The wad does not open as fast as other loads and put way more pellets in a 30" circle at 40 yards. They only load 4 or 6 shot, they skip 5# Cabelas may have them? I have them if you get up this way. Have fun and I hope you have good hunting weather. Maybe next year I come too! SXS Ohio
