Erpr 210, September 1940

Hi Forumites:
Myself and others at the Brooklands Library are trying to determine the bomb loading of the aircraft which attacked the Vickers factory on the 4th September 1940.
Some reports suggest that the target was hit by 6 x 500Kg bombs, with two bombs per aircraft. Would the 13 Bf110s that attacked have each used that size bomb? What happened to the other 20 bombs? Could there have been a "mixed" bomb loading amongst the aircraft involved, of 500 and 250 Kg bombs? Does anyone have suggestions on this??
