Buckshot refers to shotgun ammo that uses pellets too large to simply pour into the shell casing. Pellet sizes are numbered - lower numbers mean larger diameter. #1 buckshot pellets measure .30" in diameter, larger than #2 but smaller than 0 (single aught) and 00 (double aught).
Yes. More pellets than 00 Buck (16 vs 9) means higher hit probability, while still meeting FBI penetration standards. Reduced overpenetration risk compared to larger buckshot.
