Wisconsin Hunter's Safety Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

In terms of shot shell numbers, what does a smaller number indicate?

bigger the gun

A smaller shot shell number does not indicate a bigger gun. In fact, the opposite is true. A smaller shot shell number indicates a smaller size of shotgun. The other options are incorrect because

- Option B, scope, is unrelated to shot shells and is used for aiming and magnification in rifles.

- Option C, design feature for accuracy and distance, may apply to rifle bullets but not to shot shells, which are used in shotguns for a spread of shot.

- Option D, size of rifle bore and cartridges, refers to a measurement for rifles, not shotguns. Shot shell numbers are specific to shotguns and measure the diameter and weight of shot.
