16 Gauge Shotgun Ammo 2 Items

The 16 Gauge Ammo balances the power of a 12 gauge with the lighter recoil of a 20 gauge, making it an excellent choice for hunting and sport shooting. While less common today, it remains a favorite among upland hunters for its efficient payload-to-recoil ratio.  (See All Shotguns).
