loud-n-boomerAvailability of 16-gauge ammo in Argentina?
I an scheduled for a duck and perdiz hunt in Argentina in July and am thinking about bringing my drilling and adding a big game hunt. I presume I can bring 40 rounds of rifle ammo with me if I have a gun permit. However, if I can get 16-gauge ammo in country I would prefer that to trying to bring it with me.Is 16-gauge ammo reasonably available in Argentina?YesNo

larryshoresI have been down about 20 or so times. I have never seen 16 gauge shells in the places I went.

DCS MemberI have also been many times and work with an outfitter. The only time I’ve seen 16ga shells they were personal shells of one of the partners. They were not meant to be shot in the quantities you typically expect in Argentina. He only breaks out his AyA on occasion to “stretch its legs” on pigeons every now and then.
However, ask your outfitter. They may be able to special order some. As others have said, they typically won’t be in the shell barn.

Saeed16 gage brings find memories.
My grandad used only 16 gage.
Browning A5.
We had no pretty ammo as we ordered it thousands from FN.
The 20 gage has taken over .

loud-n-boomerKind of what I thought, but one can always hope.
