Then you don't know how to properly use a micrometer.

Who told you this crap Mark, bob**** the shackle expert?
I'm not familiar with BBB chain, but proof coil and HT will take a
shackle
pin 2 sizes (2/16'') BIGGER. In fact, everything I've read says to
use
a
shackle the next size up from the chain.

2/16" that anything like 1/8" ?

Exactly the same. very good ozone. You didn't cheat and ask Jax, did
you?

I did, but he told me that 1 + 1 = 3 and that 1/16 should really be
1/17 because when you measure 1/16 the jaws of the micrometer are
never square and have a very small gap so the actually read a little
larger than actual.
