G'day Daryl and others, this post has appeared at the perfect time for me. I have recently purchased a La Sorda 16g SxS with the idea of using it mainly with solids. I have been looking at rifled slugs for the more open choke and intended using shot only in the tighter barrel. After reading this post I see that this is not the way to go. I have already fitted rifle sights to the gun so as soon as I can feed it I can start testing. I went for 16g in the first place because I have a 16g cape gun, with moulds but the projectiles are way to big for the shotty. How much under choke size would you suggest for round ball and how about a paper patched conical. Would you have a smokeless suggested starting load for either? Also have you ever used the Federal rifled slug in 16g, I see they claim about 1750fps for this projectile?

With thanks and good shooting, Ian.
