All Davide Pedersoli rifles are manufactured in Italy and, according to Italian Law, are proof tested at the
National Firing Proof House according to the rules imposed by C.I.P. (International Proof Commission).
Proper marks of the tests are stamped both on the barrel and the receiver of the rifle.
Commercial cartridges Pmax pressure is measured in BAR in Europe and PSI in the USA, and it is the
maximum pressure NEVER TO BE EXCEEDED during the use of the gun.
You can obtain the equivalent maximum pressure value of the commercial cartridge measured in P.S.I. by
multiplying the BAR value x 14,5037.
The list below complies with the C.I.P. charts, and shows the maximum pressure allowed for commercial
cartridges to be used with Davide Pedersoli guns, in the various calibers. The below mentioned data is
presented in BAR and PSI values.
WARNING: IN NO CASE SHOULD THE CARTRIDGES EXCEED SUCH VALUES OR THOSE SET FOR
THE SPECIFIC MODEL RECOMMENDATIONS.
