Sorry, thought we were discussing “20 Gauge Damascus Pressure”

For the 20, I have settled on using Unique(which I have) until I can find some 20/28 powder.
Jay, did you ever get round to having the 20G Unique loads tested for pressure and velocity?

Hi Neil,

I never did get them tested, but I use them all the time. I have stepped the powder down for a 1/2oz. load that has been both effective and remarkably fun to shoot(practicly zero recoil).

Here is a 20ga load I made up and had tested using Unique. Shot it in my damascus 20ga DH.
