24 Νοε 2021 · What is dram and how is it relevant to shotgun shooters today? We'll explain and include a 12 gauge dram equivalent chart.
The term “dram equivalent” is a holdover from the days when shotshells were loaded with blackpowder. Blackpowder is (or at least was) measured in “drams.” This is a weight measure, where 16 drams equal one ounce.
7 Φεβ 2017 · Here’s how you figure dram equivalency: In 12 gauge, a standard 3 dram load with 1-1/8 oz of shot travels 1200 fps. Each 1/4 dram equivalent that you add increases velocity 55 fps. Each 1/8 oz of shot that you add subtracts 35 fps.
27 Ιαν 2018 · While less commonly used today, the Dram Equivalent can still give the shooter an idea of the muzzle velocity. This requires knowing the gauge, shot weight and the dram equivalent. An easy-to-use conversion table can be found on the internet. Some shell boxes may show the velocity as “Max.” (maximum) or “MAG.” (magnum), which may ...
8 Ιουλ 2015 · DRAM EQUIVALENT. The accepted method of correlating relative velocities of shotshells loaded with smokeless propellant to shotshells loaded with black powder. The reference black powder load chosen was a 3 dram charge of black powder, with 1 1/8 oz. of shot and a velocity of 1200 fps.
11 Ιουλ 2017 · I've developed some templates in Excel for reloading, range reports, and group analysis. It may seem like alot of information initially, but I find it to be very thorough. Hope this can be of some help to ya'll.
27 Φεβ 2018 · Dram Equivalent: Shotshells were once loaded with blackpowder, measured in drams. When smokeless powder was introduced, loaders needed blackpowder-to smokeless powder equivalents, so the term...
