Devon Minnow 152 Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Does anyone know the weight in grains of .34 cal and .36 cal lead balls? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ratbuster 807 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 .36 ball will weight around 8 gram aka 124 grains. Never seen .34 ball so no idea about its weight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamdrglass 15 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 .36 ball will weight around 8 gram aka 124 grains. Never seen .34 ball so no idea about its weight. You may be a bit off on grains. A .44 caliber is closer to 120 grns....I think a ..360 is closer to 70 grains. I would have to weigh mine......but the lee 000 buckshot mold is .360 and drops 18 per pour....they work well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ratbuster 807 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 You'll be right. Just found the weight of a.36 ball and converted that from grams to grains (1:15) Might have got the wrong weight on that one. Thanks for clearing that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devon Minnow 152 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 What band setup do you use with the .36 I was thinking looped 2040. I use 2040 with 9.5mm steel works well but was wondering whether.36 or .34 would be good for close range hunting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
