Aware of this term relating to cartridge quantities.
I work in the 'stone' industry, 'Slabs' are slices varying from 12mm to 40mm of stone cut from quarried cubes/blocks. Slabs also referred to as 'scants' tho not so widely. Depending on type of stone, can vary from 325x210cm to 190x140cm.
Bit bigger than slab of cartridges.
when i offer chaps to shoot my martini henry and show them the cartridge you can see the fear in their faces as they decline lol
i just say its only 480gn bullet being pushed by 85gns of swiss no 3 bp
i dont use this load normally just wanted to see if any benefit of using a proper military service load......normally shoot around 70-75 gns

My 577 ph musketoon is rather unpleasant with the full service charge, but a pussycat with 40gn.
