When the Aspen Outfitting Company were still selling their Ugartechea shotguns, Jon Hollinger had produced a small brochure for their light game guns which instructed such procedures as assembly, loading, operation, maintenance, choice of ammunition, use of steel shot, etc. I believe at the time, they were offering a lifetime warranty on their AOC/SG Ugartechea light game shotguns.
For the choice of ammunition he had specified as follows:
12 GA. Guns – 7/8 oz. to 1 1/8 oz. of # 6, 7 1/2, 8 or 9 shot. No more than 3 drams equivalent of powder.
16 GA. Guns – 7/8 oz. to 1 oz. of # 6, 7 1/2, 8 or 9 shot. No more than 2 3/4 dram equivalent of powder.
20 GA. Guns – 3/4 oz. to 7/8 oz. of #6, 7 1/2, 8 or 9 shot. No more than 2 1/2 dram equivalent of powder.
28 GA. Guns – 1/2 oz. to 3/4 oz. of # 6, 7 1/2, 8 or 9 shot. No more than 2 dram equivalent of powder.
