PostForum: 16ga. Ammunition & Reloading   Posted: Thu Mar 03, 2022 7:44 pm   Subject: Turkey hunting 2022 - Ammunition Poll
I need to build some 2-1/2” loads for a Husqvarna 310 choked full/xfull. I have some #6 nickel plated shot. I think 1 oz should be plenty.

Lead is my answer.

I appreciate the follow up. Low pressure is not a must. These will be used in a very mechanically sound Model 12 of 1913 vintage. My goal is a 7/8 oz load between 1150 and 1200 FPS. If I can achie ...

I need to start loading 2-1/2” 20 ga shells. I have plenty of components and tools but am lacking in wads. I am trying to decide on a wad to use along with a fold crimp. I would like to avoid roll ...

One last question/observation. The data posted that was taken from Hodgdon specifically states the hull was 2-3/4” long. The conversation has centered on using one specific recipe from that data set ...

That looks like a great load. Is it a published load recipe or one you have had tested? I wonder how the SG16 wad would affect pressure, velocity, and the stack height with 1 oz of shot. I have mor ...

HS-6 can be used in place of Win 540.

Two Barrels-what is the payload of their 12 ga load you mentioned?

Not certain. It could be either 1-1/8 or 1-1/4 oz. Give them a call. They will answer the phone and that is refreshing in this ...

I just got off of the phone with Sarah at Boss. She confirmed they do have a 1200FPS fiber wad 16ga bismuth load. Both #3 and #5 shot are in stock.

Incidentally, I asked about 12 ga too. They al ...

I ordered a 100round flat of the #5s two weeks ago from them. They shipped the next day. Disappointment set in when I opened the box and the hulls were red and not purple. I plan to field test the ...

As you stated, condition matters greatly. I was able to pick one up locally about 5 years ago for $375. The barrel was a Sweet 16 Solid Rib IC barrel with a spotless bore on a 1956 standard frame. ...

I dug a little more on the B&P website and they show these shells at 1312 FPS and 720 bar. That is just over 10,400 PSI. I think I will pass on them and go with RST.

Does anyone have direct experience with 16ga B and P F2 Classic shells?

Would you think these are suitable in a tight and good condition Husqvarna 310AS with 2-1/2” chambers? Their length does not ...
