Ballisti-Steel Target Steel Shot #8 (10 lb)

Technical: Ballist-Steel Target Shot is not as spherically precise as BPI’s Annealed Steel Shot and Plated Steel Shot, but it's been engineered for target-range pattern performance and for built for significant cost savings. The size variation of the latest tested lot is +/- 0.014”. Surface quality shows occasional dimpling. When we consider that these sizes of steel shot will be shot at relatively short range, the slight imperfections of the shot form lend themselves well to filling a pattern at standard target ranges.

Sizing:
     • #7 Average Diameter = .1009” +/- .013”
     • #7 Average Weight = 1.02 grains per pellet
     • #7 Pellets per Ounce = 429 pellets per ounce (avg.)

     • #8 Average Diameter = .0931” +/- .014”
     • #8 Average Weight = 0.82 grains per pellet
     • #8 Pellets per Ounce = 534 pellets per ounce (avg.)

Hardness: 
     • 290 HV or around 290 DPH 
     • Rockwell C: about 30–31 HRC
     (Hardness conversions are approximate and depend on the alloy and test method, so use them as a close estimate, not an exact equivalence.)

Advantages:
     • Cost Effective: Significantly less expensive than standard steel shot, offering a highly cost-effective solution for non-toxic target and light field loads.
     • Environmentally Friendly: Contaminant-free and non-hazardous.
     • Using only domestically-sourced, select steel scrap, Ballist-Steel Target Shot is produced with precise control of the microstructure to deliver maximum durability and impact energy transfer.
