So What’s AutoBuck?
Winchester announced this new load and claimed it’s optimized for semi-auto shotguns. What makes a cartridge optimized for semi-auto shotguns? That’s not really clear, though I have to think the fact that AutoBuck is loaded with No. 1 shot rather than OO pellets has something to do with it.It’s not a high brass load. In fact, it’s not a brass rim at all. It’s Winchester’s alloy, the kind we typically find with less expensive loads.
Winchester packed AutoBuck with twelve No. 1 buckshot pellets. They bill AutoBuck as being a good all-around choice for competition, hunting, or personal defense. No. 1 is about the smallest unplated pellet that can reach the proper depths necessary to reach something vital.
The rated velocity is 1,325 feet per second. That pushes AutoBuck out of the reduced recoil realm.
