After the hunter pulls the trigger, the firing pin strikes the primer of the shotgun shell, igniting the gunpowder inside. This rapid combustion generates a high-pressure gas that pushes the shot pellets out of the shell and down the barrel. The shot then exits the muzzle, propelled by the expanding gases, allowing for the intended discharge toward the target.
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.
