Where is the boundary / difference in light or heavy loads ?
Talking 12 g factory ammo.
I presume "skeet" would be classified as LIGHT,,,, but at what stage would a cartridge be classified as HEAVY ?
I have come across a gun that has an interchangeable aluminium collar.
One is stamped "Heavy" and the other is stamped "LIGHT"
Any info welcomed,,, maybe by PM.
Cheers fellas

I would have said 36g is heavy. Does it matter?

Problem solved,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
The "bible" says 28 - 32gr is light,,,,,,
and 38 - 46gr is heavy ,,,,,,,,
Misread it the 1st time but finally got it right.
