    I have seen 00 buck in some shops, but has anyone ever seen smaller buckshot for sale in Ireland, like #4 - #1 buck?

    It goes asfik 00 then 000 then BB and that is on the amount of pellets in the shell
    00 has 9 pellets 000 has 12to 14 and BB is then 40 plus.

    You have nos. 1, 2, 3, 4 and what we call AAA over here but I think is designated T shot stateside. I can see #4 being a good round, a little bigger projectiles than AAA but much smaller than 00, just havn't seen it over here.
