Barrel gauges are the number of balls that can be made that fit that barrel drom a pound of lead. Except .410. A 12 guage means that 12 balls can be made to fit that barrel. A 20 gauge 20 balls. I use 000 buckshot for lure weights. Shot size stays the same 00 in a 12 guage is the same size in a 16 gauge. Only more pellets of 00 in a 12 gauge shell.
