Loading 10 Gauge Using 12 Gauge Data

I e been using 19.6 of GD with ounce loads and 19.2 with 1 1/8 . Shot them at the Southern and they did fine if I pointed the gun correctly .

I would assume that’s the approximately the same pressure as the “Damascus safe” RST loads?

To be honest , I have no idea what RST loads are rated .

I’m kinda of the opinion if a 12 gauge load with x grains of powder and x ounces of shot is this pressure the same charge/weight should be less in a larger diameter barrel of a 10 gauge . So to be TOTALLY honest I don’t worry about it

I don't recall where I found this pressure data for RST shells but I believe it originated with RST. It is dated 2017, things may have changed since.
