16 ga.

[Harry Collins]

Nicholas,

What bothered me more than the ammo for a 16 gauge being hard to find and expensive is that it is not appropriate for the gauge. 1 oz and 1 1/8 oz at 1300+ fps is not what I want. 7/8 and 1 oz at under 1200 fps is what I would like to find on the shelves.

I'm new to shotguns. A little over a year ago I didn't own any. Now I have a 12 ga 500A Mossberg, 16 ga Stevens, and a 10 ga sxs ext hammer Parker Bros.(1879).

Fiocchi Game/Target 16GT, 16 Gauge, 2 3/4", 1 oz, 1165 fps,

I have liked the performance of these for grouse and woodcock, I get them in #6, 7 1/2, 8 for hunting and clays, they are getting a little harder to find but a google search shows dealers, and I can still get them locally

although - they did miss a couple woodcock today
