• Ammunition - Birdshot is used for manipulation training. While any birdshot will do, it's best to acquire "high-brass" birdshot with a higher powder charge if you are running an automatic shotgun. This will give you less malfunctions when training with a semi-auto shotgun. Your pump action will cycle just about anything. For buckshot, any 2-3/4" 00 buck is recommended. Any standard rifled slug will be fine for training. To find the best online prices for ammo, try www.ammoseek.com
