Hey all, do you think it would be okay to use Fiocchi Golden Pheasant loads in my FN 16ga? The gun was made in 1945 and is chambered for 2 3/4".

Here are the bbl flats

most any one ounce lead field load should be safe in this gun...

but, to be extra safe, consult with a knowledgeable gunsmith re shooting this gun with a specific load...

and if this is the load you are asking about...

then, don't do it...

as it is too much for your old gun, in my opinion...
