Short Ten Blue Dot Load: Test Results
1 Attachment(s)
I just received test results for a Blue Dot waterfowl load (using bismuth). The load has: (1) a 10 gauge Remington (green) hull (cut to 2 7/8''); (2) a Winchester 209 primer; (3) 35.0 grains of Blue Dot; (4) an SP-10 wad; (5) 1/4'' 16 gauge fiber filler in the wad cup; (6) 1.25 ounces of #4 bismuth; and (7) a 6 point fold crimp. The average velocity was 1143 fps and the average pressure was 6317 psi.

i use blue dot in all my duck, goose and turkey loads.
thanks for the info |
Thanks. I've got everything to make these. But were the powder charges weighed or just dropped from a reloader? Lots of differences in the velocity is why I ask, up to 200 fps.

Victor did you get a clean burn with the Blue Dot load ? By clean I don't mean perfect just reasonably clean

I suspect that Longshot or 800x would work better and still keep the pressures down . |
