You can get 16g in Texas, and with a little pre-planning you'll can ensure you always take more than enough shells with you; but that's why I don't own a 16g. There have been several times in the past 20 years where I simply ran out of shells, and I know I can always find/borrow/buy 12g and 20g no matter where I am in Texas. 16g not so much.
