The diameter of 000 (triple-aught) buckshot is approximately 0.36 inches or 9.14 millimeters. This size is commonly used in shotgun ammunition for hunting and self-defense, offering a balance between stopping power and shot spread. It typically contains fewer pellets per shell compared to smaller buckshot sizes, making it effective for larger game.
Triple the diameter is.
Since circumference is proportional to the diameter (the proportionality is the definition of the irrational number pi) and the radius is just twice the diameter, if you triple the radius, you also triple the circumference.
The circumference is doubled or tripled, respectively.
Using the formula C=Pi x D Therefor the diameter of a shot putt ring is 12 feet and Pi = 3.14 So 3.14 x 12 = 37.68 feet

Buckshot is the large round lead shot fired from a shotgun for hunting large animals, suck as deer (as in Bucks and Does- shot for bucks) The lead balls come in different sizes, denoted by a number. The smaller the number, the larger the shot. The largest standard buckshot is 000, triple ought, at about .35 caliber. 00 (double ought) is the most common, at about .32 caliber. There is 0,1,2,3, and #4 buckshot- about .25 caliber. Different shotguns will pattern some shot better than others. Larger, heavier shot has more range, and greater penetration.

Buckshot is a large lead shot for shotgun shells (especially used in hunting big game).
Not very many- between 3 and 5 pellets, depending on whether the shell is a 2.5 inch or a 3 inch. Many are 000 buck (known as triple ought) although some are in #4 buckshot. There is even one that is called 0000 buck, nearly .40 caliber.
Depends on the use, and how YOUR shotgun patterns. For deer (some areas do not allow slugs or rifles, so buckshot it is) I am partial to 00 Buckshot. Larger pellets retain more energy, give better penetration.
O buckshot is 0.32" (8.1mm) in diameter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun_shell#Buckshot 9 of these pellets weighs an ounce, so there are 144 per pound. A pound is 7000 grains, which means a single O buckshot pellet weighs 48.6 grains. This is just more than half what a typical pistol bullet of that caliber weighs, and less than a third of what a typical 8mm rifle bullet of that same caliber weighs.
Yes chokes are designed to tighten shot patterns.
either 12 gauge slug or buckshot to the head.
The size of a pellet is denoted by a number; for bird shot, this goes from the smallest, 12 (1.2 mm, 0.05 in), to the second-largest, 2, and then BB (4.6 mm, 0.18 in). In the case of buckshot, the digits 4, 3, 2, 1, 00 ("single-aught"), 00 ("double-aught"), 000 ("triple-aught"), and 0000 serve as the beginning and ending points ("quadruple-aught").
Yes you can. Lead Shot is Lead Shot. I shoot all kinds of different sizes of shot out of my Mossberg and Remington Shotguns. What you do not want to do is shot a slug out of barrel made for shot. Get a rifled barrel for that.
Yes- Buckshot, birdshot, or slugs.
