wymberley Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 This quote from another thread elsewhere: "BASC selling the move to steel shot and the comparing Eley VIP Steel Pro Eco wad , Gamebore bio-wad silver steel and a popular plastic wad steel load. Half choke pattern at 35yards 30inch circle Eley 3 shot 153 Eley 5 shot 231 Gamebore 4 shot 178 and popular 4 shot 226 Averages from five patterns fired from each cartridge." I'm not in BASC and have no intention of using steel shot so have no idea what's going on, however, in view of the above I have replaced some tables (with thanks to Stonepark who downloaded them at the time and still had them) that were lost when Photobucket pulled the freebies site. These can be found in the "Lead and Steel Shot Sizes" thread by Henry D which is pinned and have only done so in case the quoted move gains momentum.. To use the Tables, simply find the penetration figure for your existing shot and its maximum range and the plan is then to get a reasonably accurate guide to the effectiveness of the steel shot by simply matching that figure to a steel shot size of your choice. As this is simply a notification, it is now locked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
