yes I know that....#7 isnt common loading but it sure as shit is more effective on smaller animals....wallabies we found were better off with #BBs or #2 as it filled out pattern and had enough penertration for those tthin skinned/light boned hoppers who are as a rule no heavier than a fat Labrador . the #7 has less pellets but way more penertration,than BBs.....way more pellets and less penertration than 00 sort of best of both worlds....in my experience.
