16 Gauge Ammo Shells

Though not as popular as its 12 and 20 gauge cousins, the 16 gauge shotgun is an excellent choice for sport shooting. It is quite popular in Europe and is often employed for hunting upland birds such as quail or pheasant. 16 gauge ammo firing slugs is also available for those looking to put venison on the table.

16 gauge ammunition is made by a number of manufacturers including Federal/Estate, Winchester, Brenneke, and Remington. A typical sporting load fires an ounce of shot at a muzzle velocity of 1,100-1,200 feet per second, generating relatively moderate recoil and good results against a variety of small game and bird targets.
