Congratulations on the Trojan 16. The quail gun I carry most of the time is a VH 16.
The doulblegunshop.com has a section with much shotgun info- shot size, gauge diameter, choke information etc... http://www.doublegunshop.com/info.htm That is where I copied this table: Shotgun Chokes (*typical values) for a 12 bore gun Points** Inches American European % of Pattern in 30" circle @ 40 yards*** 0 .000 Cylinder S 40% 5 .005 Skeet VZ 45% 10 .010 Improved Cylinder 1/4 50% 15 .015 Skeet #2 - 55% 20 .020 Modified 1/2 60% 30 .030 Improved Modified 3/4 65% 35 .035 Full 1/1 70% 40 .040 Extra-Full - 75% I would use the same set up for a 16 gauge shooting an ounce of lead. Best, Mike |

Calvin, I have 161555; a little "older" than yours? It was the last of a batch of about a dozen Trojan 16s. I haven't patterned it for an overall count, just a kill zone count at 35 and 50 yards; probably mod & full at 28". I use spreaders when in the coverts. Like yours, a nice light, sweet handling gun.

I have a nice 26" Trojan 16 that my brother-in-law swears is his (but he hasn't paid me for it yet so it's still mine and resides in my safe) and it carries like an 0-frame and is choked about IC/FULL. A great little upland gun. 202066 made the same year that my Dad was born.

yall like that 16.. as you get older a person tends to go to a lighter gun...as they say a 16 handles like a 20 ga and shoots like a 12 ga... congratulations on a fine gun... charlie
