Fiber Wads and Smokeless Powder for Short 10 Gauge

[Paul Harm]

Craig, you sure those 1 1/4 or 1 3/8oz loads aren't too light for clay birds ? Man, my shoulder hurts just thinking about them. I like 1oz loads in the short 10 for clay bird games. If my 12ga 3/4 or 7/8oz loads work just fine in a 12ga there's no reason a 1oz load won't work in a 12 or the 10. 20grs of RD, GD, or Promo all work. 17grs of 700x is also fine in the 10 with fiber wads and 1oz of shot. JMHO

The 1 1/4 7625 and Unique loads aren’t bad . Shot the 7625 loads at sporting clays last Friday and shot a mid 80’s score . The Tuesday before the Unique loads worked nicely at skeet even though I mostly shot backwards doubles at all stations . My 1 1/8 ounce Red Dot loads worked well for a friend last Friday at sporting as well . Sorry to say I’ve not tried any of the 1 1/4 with Universal Clays yet as I’ve misplaced the paper I had the load scribbled on .
