sorry to revive an old thread.
I looked at the spread sheet, and can't seem to find the 19gr of Red Dot load that you guys seem to be talking about.
What hulls, primers and wads are you using for the 1 1/8oz load. i'm assuming the sp10 Wad?
I have a lot of Red Dot and would like to start using the 10ga for skeet
Thanks

Spread sheet is awesome, great bit of info. i'l now be able to use my 10s for everything

it depends on what is needed to fill the space for a proper crimp

Perfect, looks like i've gotta pick up some filler wads, i normally use cheerios for my 7/8oz 12ga loads, i think i would need way to many to fill in that kind of space.

i have a couple 12 ga loads i use Cheerios in to fill to

my 10ga loads need a little more if I go light on the shot- either Circle Fly cards/wads, or in one - old Alcan 16ga blue felt wads - although - running short on them finally

.......and what you have on hand. In my experience one cheerio under the shot works great, two or more cheerios and the chance of a squib load goes up.

Has anyone tried sticking a 12g. plastic wad into the SP10 prior to loading shot to take up room? Or maybe cutting down the wad instead of using the fiber fillers?

Sounds like a lot of work when I can just put a cheap fiber wad in there

Not sure what it would do to pressure
