I cant wait to load up a bunch of 3/4 oz loads.... I had them tested and they came back good... almost 1200 fps @ 5200psi...I think that was it. I dont understand people that think they need to shoot magnum loads at clay. My buddy and I went a while back and shot 4 rounds of skeet. He told me the next day his shoulder and cheek was bruised and sore. He hasnt been back since. lol.... If I could make my old double kick like a 22 rimfire I would...

See you in the field

I have been loading 12ga 3/4 oz loads since the 80's, back then I used Fed. 12S0 wads and a nitro card. Now you can get 3/4 oz wads .I still use 15.5 gr. of 700X in Win AA hulls. You can't beat 3/4 & 7/8 oz loads on old S/S shotguns.
