for split shot ,i try too follow the devide by two rule and only carry shot sizes that double down

Split shot size Weight Shot equivalent
~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

these only used for ledger weight

3SSG --------- 4.8g -------- 6 x AAA

2SSG ----------3.2g -------- 4 x AAA
======================================================
these used as bulk or ledger weight or locking shot ,probably my most used shot

SSG ---------- 1.6g --------- 2 x AAA

=======================================================

these used for float capacity weight often stepped down or split into smaller shots ,i never have too work out what works into what eveything divides by two

AAA ---------- 0.8g --------- 2 x BB

BB ---------- 0.4g --------- 2 x No4 my second most used shot

No4 ---------- 0.2g -------- 3 x No9

No6 ---------- 0.1g -------- 2 x No10

=======================================================
these lower sizes are often ,substituted by styles or preston stotz weights

No9 ---------- 0.05g

No12 --------- 0.02g -------- 2 x No13

No13 --------- 0.01g

this way theres less too worry about and less too carry a stock of .
