In all the shoots I go to the 16 is grouped with the 12's but it is considered by many as a small bore. To me a small bore is from the 20 to the 410. I shoot a lot of 16's and always compete with the 12's which is fine by me. 7/8's is plenty of shot for a clay target or kill a bird.

I believe historically 12 and larger to be big bore and 16 and smaller to be small bore. Where the 14 falls in is an unanswered question not to worry about.
