Been thinking about this 1887. What type of rounds can be used? Standard 00 Buck, slug, or are only light loads, low recoil rounds recommended?

Question

James G. · Answer

Hi Jorge and welcome. This model has a 2.75-inch Chamber and will shoot Birdshot, Buckshot and Slugs no issue. Standard or low recoil does not matter. Just match the shells to the task at hand. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!
