Paul what I found with my GD Crow load 27 Grs and 1 1/4 oz Lead burns clean but has more velocity than needed with too much recoil. Drop the load to 23 grs & 1 1/4 oz velocity comes down to the just under 1200 I want and recoil is reasonable. It does burn dirty but that's not a big issue, go to 1 1/8 oz shot it gets very dirty. 23 Green Dot & 1 1/4 is just right for me.

Not finished testing but looks like 19 of Red Dot and 1 or 1 1/8 oz is going to be my Clay's load. I have two short 10's than might pattern fine with 1 oz. 3rd gun with less choke needs 1 1/8 to fill out patterns. Probably settle on 1 1/8 oz for all Red Dot target loads to keep it simple.

This all seat of the pants testing, Paper and my Cronograph.
