Default 2 1/2" 12 ga loads

What load do you shoot in your 2 1/2" 12 ga. I have plenty of Cheddite shells I can cut down and also AA's and Gun Clubs. I have plenty of CB 1078 wads, the gray 7/8 oz. I have Red Dot, Green Dot, Universal, International, 7625, and Unique powders.
I have been loading 2 1/2" 16's and 20's, and thought I might just load short 12's also. I can get other wads and powders if necessary. I will be shooting these in my WW Greener sidelever circa 1875 and in my Fox pin gun( don't have a Parker 12). I have been shooting 7/8 0z, 2 3/4" low pressure loads thru them.
