Jack I do not shoot 1 1/8 loads but I have shot the 1 oz 1200 FPS load on the attached for a number of years with good success. I like the cleanliness of this powder. It's as good as I have found in a slow burner, meters great, and I have been overly impressed with the consistency when I chronograph these loads. Good luck...

17 to 18 grains of Clay Dot in any Fed, Win, or Rem hull makes a nice 1 or 1 1/8 ounce load. I use this load in 7\8 ounce shells.

I use Red Dot for 7/8 & 1 oz. 12g charges straight from Alliants web site. Low pressure low recoil.

Guys,
I've got my work cut out for me now. I'm going to try all of these. A buddy gifted me about 2 lbs of red dot. I think I have a partial can of green dot and 700X on a shelf in the shop that I had forgotten about. I will be heading to the gun shop for clay dot and American select because I know I don't have them. Thank you for your answers. Jack |

Are you familiar with the Alliant and Hodgdon reloading websites ? Hopefully you will check them out for the proper components to use with these powders to achieve the results you are after. They are great sources of information. Good luck.

Why try all these diffferent powders? If I gave you a blind test of all the different powders on your list and all were loaded to the same equivelent, I seriously doubt you could tell the difference in the shells performance. If you asked about what's the best as far as cost, availability, cleanliness, etc., then there are some differences. Just pick one powder in your list that you can purchase locally, go to the powders web site and use the components shown for a low pressure load.
