To find the size of lead ball a basic formal used is
(17- Shot No X)/100 gives us the size of the lead ball in inch.
e.g. For Shot 1 shells it would be
(17-1)/100= 0.16 inch
Thank you Vikram and Rakshit for the video..

Problem being, shot size designation varies from country to country. It is not universal. What is size "1" shot here is not size "1" there.
