Not entirely clear on the concept of shotgun gauge. ;)

I know, I know. A true gauge of 'zero' is not possible. It can approach zero, but cannot reach it, because if it takes zero lead spheres of a particular diameter to weigh a pound, then said diameter must be infinity.

in fact, my experimental shotgun measures 0.0025 gauge (it's barrel diameter is approx. one foot), but "Zero Gauge" is a MUCH more marketable name, if not exactly technically correct.

I suppose it could also be expressed as "AAA-1/2", or some such, but "Zero Gauge" still has a nicer ring to it, don't you think?

You CAN fit an awful lot of bird-shot in each shell, though, I can assure you of that.
