| Does anyone know if the current Winchester 16 gauge factory game loads(1 ounce/1165fps) are still using Cheddite hulls? |

| The latest that I have bought (2 weeks) said made in France and are Cheddite. They reload great. The other ones on the shelf said made in the USA. Thy are not so good and don't reload the same. I always check the side of the box. I made that mistake already. |

The last 4 cases of winchesters made in France I bought were 67mm and worked great in my 65mm browning 16s. They may be max cip loads so not sure if they are safe in your guns. Be safe

That's funny to a farm kid.
