Taking advantage of all the previous interchange of information and data
I would selfishly appreciate feedback on the following combination I am going to
use (no 2,5 shells locally available and I have no reloading equipment)

-Manufrance Ideal 16/65 proofed/prooved to 1100 KILOS (1079 BAR according to some
conversion tables from <http://www.convert-me.com/en/convert/pressure>
-Locally made TEC 16/67 shells, 57mm unfired length with 26grams of #7 shot,
loaded to CIP standard 570 BAR (581.2 KILOS according to same tables,or 8,267lbs)

Local CIP Proof House (yes, 3rd World country does have a proper Proof House) told me
the TEC and Fiocchi shells made locally are extremely consistent in their pressures.
A lot more consistent than the imported shells from USA or Europe they have to test.

Even allowing for a 15% increase in pressure I would be a lot lower than the proof
pressure of the gun (unless my conversions are totally off).

Thanks in advance,

JC(AL)
