Found several old MEC charts.
5 in 12 gauge shows 3 drams equivalent, 1 1/8 ounce of shot, 23 grains of unique, wad pressure 75, 2 3/4" shell, it then says shell with HI BASE WAD 9/16" wad column, shell with LOW BASE WAD 15/16" wad column.
Now that is going back a ways when there were no plastic wads!
Substitute plastic wads? As the preacher in Blazing Saddles said after the Bible was shot through: "Son, you're on your own."
