Let’s Talk About Buckshot – The Box O Truth

Let's Talk About Buckshot - The Box O Truth

The Box O' Truth

Southeast, Texas - -(AmmoLand.com)- A short while back I was on Shotgunworld in the Tactical/Home Defense Forums, (also known as The Basement) and we had a guy ask a simple question:

‘Specifically, I’m curious about how much the shot in standard 2-3/4″ 9-pellet 00 buckshot weighs. Anyone know?

I tried figuring it out mathematically and came up with about 1.1 ounces. I thought that seemed a bit light, but I guess they can’t pack big pellets as tight as birdshot, so I don’t know.’

He had several guys try to help him. And several quoted manuals or lists which showed how much various sizes of buckshot were supposed to weigh. But they didn’t quite agree exactly.

Now, as you guys that know me might imagine, I had a better idea about how to solve this mystery.
