degrees elevation, though during World War II all triple 6-inch/47 gun ports were ordered to be modified to permit the full 60 degrees. The guns could only be loaded at between −5 degrees and +20 degrees elevation; this reduced the rate of fire when engaging distant surface targets or aircraft. The 105-pound Mark 34 HC shell fired at 2,665 ft/s (812 m/s) out to 23,483 yd (21.473 km) at 46.6 degrees; the 130-pound Mark 35 shell introduced just before World War II fired at 2,500 ft/s (760 m/s) at full charge and could penetrate a few inches of armor at its maximum range of 26,000 yd (24 km) at 44.5 degrees.

Powder stores were below the projectile-handling room and powder hoists fed the guns. Empty powder canisters were ejected from the turret via an ejector port at the back of the turret. When the guns were firing, it was not unusual to see empty brass canisters piling up on the deck behind the turret.

Eight to ten rounds per minute could be fired from each of the 6-inch guns. Each gun weighed 6.5 short tons (5.9 t) and could originally only be elevated up to 40 degrees but were later modified to be elevated up to 60 degrees. Originally gun ports in the turret faces were cut to allow only 41

The "Mark 16" designation refers to the gun being 16th in the 6-inch series of designs, not the turret the gun is mounted in. Smaller guns at that time had a Mark number for the type of mounting. In modern times the US Navy refers primarily to the Mark number of the gun mount (turret), but in World

The Mark 17 was used in a single-pedestal Mark 18 mount. The Mark 17 gun could fire a 105-pound (48 kg) Common shell (HE) projectile 19,800 yd (18.1 km) at an elevation of 20 degrees. Ammunition was bagged (the projectile and the powder bag were separate). The full-charge powder bag

The Mark 34 high-explosive shell this gun fired is usually referred to as "HC", but, when fitted with a proximity (VT) fuse or a mechanical time (MT) fuse, it could be used against aircraft and thus was technically an "AA" projectile in that configuration. Thus the Mark 34 HC is also in theory the

The Mark 16/16DP gun could fire a 130-pound (59 kg) projectile 11.36 mi (18.28 km) at an elevation of 22.3 degrees with a flight time of 44.7 seconds. Maximum range at 44.5 degrees elevation was 14.77 mi (23.77 km) with a flight time of 77.3 seconds. Projectiles varied in

The Mark 16 was primarily mounted in a triple turret for use against surface targets. All three guns in each turret were mounted in the same sleeve and thus elevated together, but delay coils permitted "split salvos" to be fired; this cured a shell pattern dispersion problem common to many US

Five to eight rounds per minute could be fired from each of the 6-inch guns. Each gun weighed 5.24 short tons (4.75 t) and could be elevated from −10 degrees up to 20 degrees. The 105-pound Mark 28 Common shell fired at 2,800 ft/s (850 m/s).
