What in the world is "SG Buck"? What size are the pellets?

Fiocchi seems to sell a "SG Buck" load with 33grams of payload. Would you buy it if it were offered for 48 cents a shell?

Please somebody correct me if Im wrong, but I believe that SG is the English designation for 00 buck at 0.33 in. and SSG is the equivalent of 3 buck at 0.27 in.

SG
SSG

SG or 00/SG used in Australia, from European system, same pellet as 00 buck.The fiocchi shells are a good load, the last time I used them anyway, which was in about 1995.
SSG also used here, no US buck equivalent, is in between 2 and 3 buck size.Preferred size for hogs and roos in Australia.
Have heard of the LG in books but never seen it here-interesting...
