I just took delivery of an E Merkel Cape gun in 16GA and 8X57JR. It is marked for 14 gram (216 grain) bullets. The most readily available ammo is S&B which is 12.7 gram, 196 grain bullet. Should I expect the rifle barrel to shoot high or low with the lighter S&B ammo? Is there a .318 diameter bullet weighing around 215 grains available for reloading?
