These loads are specially optimized for long shots at very large waterfowl. They are more lethal than any steel or non-toxic load, especially at longer distances. They are specially buffered to ensure a tight pattern, and the superior lethality of Hevi Shot pellets lets you shoot a smaller pellet size in order to send substantially more pellets after your bird. 3" - These magnum loads are designed for the hunter who wants more speed and energy and is willing to sacrifice a bit of pattern to get it. They still pattern far more tightly than any steel or non-toxic load. You can shoot a much smaller pellet size in order to send substantially more pellets after your bird.
Gauge: 16 Type: Hevi-Shot Length: 2.75" Ounces: 1 1/4 oz Shot Size: 4 Muzzle Velocity: 1300 fps Rounds-box: 10 Rounds Per Box, 10 Boxes Per Case

particular item.
16 gauge has generally fallen out of favor in the USA due to the 20 gauge 3” chamber offering which overlap the 16 gauge performance. However the 16 gauge still has a small loyal following with many fine serviceable guns in circulation. Although guns are no longer commonly manufactured in the US they are still produced by fine makers in Europe and ammunition is still in production world wide. The camber length is 2 ¾” with no known 3” offerings. The most common load is one ounce. Shotgun "gauge" originally meant "number of round balls to the pound, so a round 16-gauge ball weighs once ounce. Fans of the 16-gauge argue that it is thus the most balanced shotgun load with a short shot string.
