CIP Shotshell Pressures

This document provides specifications for calibers of smoothbore center fire shotguns, including nominal case lengths and diameters, chamber lengths, and maximum pressure values. It lists over 30 specific shotgun calibers along with their physical dimensions and pressure limits. The document also notes that pressure values listed for high performance cartridges and proof loads apply to all calibers, and that cartridges of 67.5mm case length can be fired in 65mm chambers when loaded with lead shot.
