A standard 1 1/4 oz. load of #6 is a deadly head-shot load out to 35-40 yards.

hi, i've done some test with my 3 frame NH 32 in 10 with .035 choke and i found that 1 1/2 oz of 6# shot produced the best patterns in my gun. i was shooting 86%( 293 out of 340 at 40 yds) and at 30 yds it shot only a little better 94% 320 out of 340. 4's shot around 76% and would have killed him just as dead but i like hitting him with 25 in the head and neck instead of 6 or 8 with 4's. that is just the way my gun shoots this load. i use 209 win. primer , 34 grs of 4756, sp 10 wad,one .125 16 ga nitro card,10ga over card and roll crimp in a fed hull 2 7/8ths. i think it is around 7000 psi ,good luck and keep use posted

Scott, What are you getting for velocity out of that load ?? That is pretty much the same as the Sherman Bell #82 or 84 load, with Bell's load using a 5 star crimp. He lists the velocities at 1167 and 1157 f/s with 7000 and 7100 psi. Sounds like a good load with nice low pressure.
change the powder to SR7625 and drop it to 32gr and it goes to 1191 f/s and 7600psi, I may just load up a few of these seeing as I have lots of SR7625 and no SR4756. I have this listing in another book: 2 7/8" 10ga with 28.5 grains of SR7625 1 1/2oz SP10 wad 1145 f/s and 7980 psi Jay, I think that my 10 has .035-.040 choke. Yours should work just fine as long as you don't try to take really long shots. When does your season start ?

Why not just buy the 1 1/4 ounce of #6's that RST sells? They're plenty of medicine for anything with feathers.

Good point Destry. One box would set a guy up for patterning his gun and keep him in turkey hunting ammo for a few years to come, so cost isn't an issue. But, like catching trophy trout or salmon on one's own hand-tied flies some guys just like to go the whole route. To each his own - me, I don't reload but I do tie and know the satisfaction.
