The sweet 16 is a legendary shotshell cartridge worthy of any wing shooting genre. It carries lighter and patterns better than any 12 gauge in its class, making it a beloved part of the duck blind and upland fields across America for well over a century.

It shatters the competition in pellet count and pattern performance, and will be sure to make your next wing shooting adventure a memorable one with birds in the bag.

Awesome shells, great customer service!!

I have my grandpa’s 16-gauge 870 Wingmaster, and I don’t shoot anything but Salt Creek ammo through it! These bismuth shells are perfect for duck, pheasant, you name it! I honestly wouldn’t hesitate to use them for turkey too (though I prefer the salt creek TSS for turkey)

As always, the customer service at Salt Creek is fantastic! They are quick to respond to any questions. Your order is processed immediately, and they are happy to help with custom requests or needs!
