The Armusa says “low pressure” and the BpS says “6000psi” on the label. I have shot a few flats of each through my 1924 Fox and 1904 Parker with absolutely no problems and frankly I’m not skilled enough to tell the difference between them. They both work fine.

Morris said they tested the BPS shells to see if they really were a lower pressure and he said they did test as BPS claims.
