Parker 410 Question

[Researcher]

My calculator says there are 129-130 #7 1/2 chilled shot in a 3/8-ounce load.

If Dave's and Parker's figures are right, old 222,947 throws 88.5% patterns at 30 yards.

Not much in the way of early .410-bore boxes in the current Ward's Auction. How many BB in a 3/10-ounce load --

Nothing pre the 1930 introduction of non-corrosive priming for the .410-bore shells.

[Bill Murphy]

Thirteen? And how about that great gun list?

[Bill Murphy]

I was just joking about the "13", but I'm amazed how close that is. The Tatham chart says 50 per ounce for BB, 18 or 19 in 3/8 ounce.
