Scott, "standard trap loads" have not been 1240 or 1250 fps at any time I can remember. Most shooters see 1200 as standard and a little less if they are concerned with recoil.

I have a lot of 572 coming. I hope that works for something. I do have a 2 3/4" load in 28g for it using AAHS hulls but nothing else I've looked at. Anyone have anything that would work in any 2.5" Cheddite hull please chime in.

Lemme know how that works for ya ! If my plans come to fruition I may have about 16 pounds of 572 that’ll hit the block !

Herco is way on the slow side for light 12 gauge target loads, but will probably be OK for the 20 except in the dead of winter. Anyone with questions should consult "burning rate charts" for suggestions and information.

That load is fine if you want to pump up to 1250 fps. Most shooters of clay targets don't want to shoot 1250 fps. At 1 1/8 ounces, 1250 fps is a punishing load, more like a pigeon load. High recoil, more velocity than required.
