Say there are 410 number 8s in an ounce, so there would be 205 in a 1/2 ounce load. If you "placed" one into every 2 square inches you would need 410 square inches to accommodate the load. That is a 22.85" diameter circle, if I understood the question correctly.

It's pretty decent, David, especially for .008" choke. It's the WW 3/4 oz. factory load of 8 1/2s. I'm working on a load that I hope will be even better, or, put another way, be at least that good at longer range. It contains very, very close to 3/4 oz. of true nickel plated 8s. There won't be quite as many 8s in the load as 8 1/2s in the other one, but if there are less fliers it might equal it in density, and the 8s will give a bit more energy at longer range.

Ain't it all fun? SRH
