8 ga. shoot @ The Southern

Mills. Did you ever get your 8ga press up and running.

The loads were superb. Factory quality. We were darn lucky to have that ammo.

2 oz of shot, 2 1/2 oz, what I don't know anything about 8 gauge loads.

FPS? anyone know
pressure/ PSI?

Mine Had 34grains Universal Clays 1 7/8 of 7 1/2 's 8140 PSI 1215 FPS. They were clear Winchester but not all the clear ones were the ones I loaded. I think I heard Mr. Stahl say his had 45 grains of Blue Dot. Jim

I like the sound of that load .

I'll have to scribble it down somewhere in case I ever luck into a Parker 8 . I am not a big fan of shooting that other stuff that makes white smoke when it comes out !

Jimmy I assume you use the Remington SP-8 wad in your loads ?

And with that bit of load data one can use Universal Clays for everything from the 8 gauge to the 28 gauge ! Nice to know !
