Anyone know if anyone makes 16 gauge 00 Buckshot?
I'd have to guess if it would work, there would be more loading data, and factory loads made with 00 buck.
Been foolin' around with shotguns for almost 40 years, and I don't recall ever seeing anything but #1 Buck in 16-Ga, and #3 Buck for the 20-Ga in the various 'factory-off-the-shelf' loads.
Did have a shooting budd that used to "roll his own" buckshot loads in 16-Ga, and in HIS guns, #1 & #4 Buck both worked quite well. Anything larger than #1, said he couldn't get enough pellets in there to make a good pattern.
