Guest cookoff013 Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 what a odd post. mk38, you are not going to loose birds because of the nationality of the lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you're joking.... but there is an 'English' shot size system which doesn't necessarily correspond to US/European. I think (?) a European 6 would be an English 5 i.e not a 6 as we would know it. OP wants a load which is definitely size 6 and cartridges/components from abroad might be labelled for a different market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 i am taking the mick because there is italian / continental and english and US shotsizes. not to mention the antimony content and the equivalencies. the higher the antimony content the lighter the density of the lead, meaning some smaller high antimony lead shotsizes actually equate to a smaller shotsize. and shotsize is calculated by shop pieces per ounce.

hawkfanz Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 best bet just look at shot size in mm,after all fiocchi use 2 different sizes some 71/2 are 2.3mm while others are 2.4mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
