Stevo , as I said the pigeon 32 are in english sizes , because they are loaded specific for our market. Confirmed here.

walt1980 Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 I use a 28g 7.5 clay load, is it actually a uk 7.5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webber Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) The label on the slab will indicate UK if the shot loaded is UK sized. Cartridges loaded specifically for the UK market contain UK sized shot. Cartridges loaded for the European market are loaded with Italian sized shot. It's probably best to look at the size quoted in MM. A simple way to convert Italian size to UK size is to deduct 1/2 from the Italian size to obtain the UK size. Therefore in the case of the F Black Sporting 8.5 the UK size will be 8 Reference to various charts to establish shot size cross reference is confusing; that's why it's best to look for the size in MM if the result really matters to 0.1 MM. webber Edited December 19, 2015 by webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
