I know that alot of people have had trouble finding 16 gauge ammo. I recently found my first 16 gauge and did not really have any. A couple of weeks ago I was in Scheels and found 16 gauge, 6 shot for pheasant priced 50% off. I think it was $13.99 a box, which is about the price of trap loads anymore. Last week, I ordered 6 boxes of 6 shot and 4 boxes of 4 shot (4 shot was $17.99 a box) so that I would have a case available. Just an FYI if you are looking for 16 gauge ammo.
