Reduce to 5,040 by omitting ss Home from the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth and twenty-fourth parts. For sixths place methods with Out before In (groups G and H: e.g. Primrose S, Hull S) 2345 O I H 5432 [s] s ss Repeat twenty-three times, omitting [s] from the fifth, ninth, seventeenth and twenty-first parts, retaining [s] in the thirteenth part, and calling bob for [s] in all other parts. Reduce to 5,040 by omitting ss Home from the first, fifth, ninth, fourteenth, eighteenth and twenty-second parts.
The unreduced callings contain every row four times each at handstroke and at backstroke, with half the 65s appearing at backstroke.
To avoid falseness care must be exercised in choosing which singled-in courses to omit when reducing the length to 5,040.
While the 5,760 is true to more esoteric methods, the reduction to 5,040 is in general only true to methods with the usual lead ends and lead heads, palindromic symmetry, and usual flow of in and our of course rows.

While the leads shown are for Cambridge, the pattern -pppp-pppp-p can be rung for any treble dodging method with the usual flow of in and out of course and a five lead plain course.
Contains no backstroke 65s when rung to methods, such as Cambridge, that keep a coursing pair behind the right way around throughout.

Leads of each letter make up a 720. In each case there are six lead-splicers available. Leads A-G are from the same course in each part so can be replaced with a course-splice providing this still gives a 5-part, e.g.
A = Notton, B = Lodsworth,
C = Strensham, D = Old Lincoln,
E = Pillaton, F = Madresfield,
G = Holywell.
E-G have Plain Bob lead-heads, so 6th's place course splices are also possible.
