Note: Use of this table for estimating bullet masses for historical large-bore rifles is limited, as this table assumes the use of round ball, rather than conical bullets; for example, a typical 4-bore rifle from circa 1880 used a 2,000-grain (4.57 oz; 129.60 g) bullet, or sometimes slightly heavier, rather than using a 4-ounce (110 g) round ...

CCI .22LR snake shot loaded with No. 12 shot. Snake shot, rat shot, or dust shot, [1] more formally known as shotshell [2] (a name shared with the shotgun shell) or canister shot, refers to handgun and rifle cartridges loaded with lead shot canisters instead of bullets, intended for pest control (essentially small arms canister shot).
The name, derived from an old English practice of bore measurements in gun-making which refers to a nominally 4-gauge bore, that is, a bore diameter that would accommodate a pure lead round ball weighing 1 ⁄ 4 of a pound. This would imply a bore diameter of 1.052-inch (26.7 mm), however in practice the bore diameter varied greatly as, in ...
