Shotgun ammo - shot fall   
Does anyone know how much BB ammo falls at 50, 70 and 100 yards please?

Any web sites that might help?

Thanks

Not so many years ago, well quite a few actually. I took a few shots at 
a steel oil drum using SSG and the results were quite amazing.

 From what little memory I have left, I can remember having to take aim 
very high before the balls struck the drum, which brings me on to the 
point I actually originally had in mind and that was to suggest you 
set-up three A3 target boards at the respective ranges and did some 
testing, that way you would know precisely where the shot would strike.
