IMR Red was advertised to be identical to Alliant Red Dot. From what I have read it is more dense and people are reporting having to go down two bushing sizes to get the same charge weight as Red Dot with a MEC press. That being said if I had any IMR Red I would use 19 grains of it with 1 1/8 ounce in the 2 7/8" 10ga. Weigh your charges until you get a consistent 19 grains of IMR Red with 1 1/8 ounce of lead and go shoot your gun.
