So I sent this load to Tom Armburst for testing .
Fed hull cut to 2 7/8 "
Fed 209a primer
23 grains Hodgdon International Clays
Rem SP-10 wad
1 1/2 oz #6 lead
6 Fold Crimp .050 -.060 deep
For 5 shot string
1177, 1181, 1166, 1179, 1179 - Ave 1176 fps EV 15
11000, 10700, 9800, 11100, 10400 - Ave 10600 psi EV 1300
I also plan on using this load for non-tox using Niceshot with a reduced payload of either 1 1/4 or 1 3/8 oz
Hope someone can use it

Thanks for sharing this information with us Mark, with your permission I will add it to the Comprehensive Short Ten reloading spreadsheet I created and post the update on the reloading forum on the PGCA site.
If anyone has any other short tem loads that were tested and would like to share them via the spreadsheet let me know of them.
Thanks, Pete
