| Anyone know a source on a 16ga wadcutter to cut over shot cards from card-stock? |

There are 25.4mm in 1 inch. Each one is .0394" 17mm is .670". which will give a good snug fit in most 16 ga barrels. 16.5mm punch will work well for solid wads to be used down inside the shell, but will not seal some barrels as well unless the wads obturate a bit upon firing. That depends on the material used to make the wad.
13mm to 14mm punch will cut .50 cal to 28 ga sized card wads for filling the 16 ga shot cup a bit. |
