I thought some shotgun shell reloaders here might find these tables useful.

Interesting info.
I have a Lee load all, 12 gauge, shotshell reloader. I never thought about how many pellets were being dumped I'm to the shell just the estimated weight that the powder charge is pushing and the pattern being made is sufficient to bring down the birds
I am hunting.
The only exception is when loading buckshot, again weight to powder charge is the factor. Size and number of buckshot the cup can hold (filling the cup without bulging the....roll crimp or standard crimp), and counting the number out makes it easier and quicker by setting aside several piles of pellets at one time.

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.
