I was watching an old show, the original law and order and they said the victim was shot with double "aweght" buckshot. They said it twice and I was puzzled til I realized they were pronouncing aught phonetically. Apparently the producers, directors, nor any of the actors knew the colloquial expression for double 0 buckshot.

Gun control done ruined NYC and the youth of this country

That and the use of the term "clip" is like nails on a chalkboard to me

how do you say it ??

"double ought" the way I've always heard it

Got my first deer in 1950 with one of those

Surely you don't say "double zero" - do you?? == have never heard that before

Cad,

I am by no means an expert, but you reminded me of an old boss from many years ago who was an antique gun enthusiast. He said he admired Clint Eastwood because he used a Navy Colt which would be available during the time period of his movies, however you would frequently see actors using a Colt 45 during the war between the states...... it wasnt even invented til years later

Every room of the house is a shotgun loaded with 00 - 4 shot. Everyone of us know how to lock and load. Even the Dobe knows how to bring one if needed!!

Colloquial expression for double 0 buckshot?

It’s an english word that means “zero”.

I actually prefer #1 buckshot for home defense.

My thirty-zero-six begs to differ.
