| Alliant just sent me a hard copy of their latest loading data book. The 16 gauge section is pathetic. Just nine total recipes. All are 1 1/8 oz except for one 1 1/4 oz load. No 7/8 or 3/4 oz data at a ... |

I love my 1961 Sweet 16. It is solid steel and wood. Old School all the way. Handles well and functions flawlessly. It is lighter and quicker than my Light 12. Kills roosters just as dead.

| I love my 16 ga 11-48. It cost me less than $250. It was made in 1950 and has been trouble free. They are one of the real sleepers in the used gun market. Enjoy yours. |

| Try diffferent wads. I did some load testing on a 12 gauge and found that wads made a difference. As I remember, Remington wads tended to pattern tighter and windjammers patterned more open. Win wads ... |

| My 1959 Sweet 16 is not so picky. Wipe down the tube with a cloth. Put on a drop or two of oil. Smear it around with my hand. Put it back together. Shoot it. Works every time. |
