As the title says, does anyone see factory number 6 in 10 gauge? It seems to have disappeared? Thoughts welcome....

I did a search on ammoseek.com


No results for 6 shot

Thx. Federal used to make the Mag-Shot load in #6. Seems to be discontinued.....

Tom, to my knowledge no major ammo company loads 10 ga. shotshells in #6 shot.  All have been discontinued to include Federal and Winchester.  Darn shame IMO.  I really like the old Federal "Premium" 2 1/4 oz. and Winchester "Supreme" HV 2 oz. loads.
Deer see you and think you are a stump. The Old Gobbler sees a stump and thinks it is YOU!

Yes sir. Those Federals in the white/gold box (and yes the box was 25) were great shells. I wish there was a site that sold this older ammo, it was great. Seems like eventually, 10 gauges may have to load their own....

I have a full box of Federal Premium Grand Slam in 6 shot. It is a blue/gold colored box. Price sticker on box is $14.99 if I recall correctly, so they must be fairly old. Came with an SP10 I bought.

Great shell there.........

I would keep checking gunbroker, I've scored all kinds of literal gold there over the years  ..the only problem with GB is that so much 12 ga ammo is mixed up into it ,it takes forever to sift through it

There is always #4 and sometimes #5
