Here are my targets from a few days ago. I tested 100 grains of FG in a Winchester hull. I loaded with a 1/4” nitro wad and 1 5/8oz of #5’s. It didn’t group as tight at 25 yards than my #6 load but IT DID have more hits at 40 yards than my test with #6 nickel plated shot. That was kind of confusing to me. At fifty yards I only had 3 hits VS with the #6’s.
I then tested all brass hulls with the same exact load but added a 3/4” fiber cushion was over the 1/4” nitro wad. The groups were poor compared to the plastic hull loads. Plastic hulls… 25 yards… ![]() 40 yards…. ![]() 50 yards… ![]() All brass… 25 yards… ![]() 40 yards…

Hi, how do you finish closing the top of your load over the shot ?

![]() The #6’s I cut my hull shorter before I crimped… ![]() The #6 load is probably 2.5” overall length. I cut the #5 shot loaded hulls around 2 3/4” before I crimped. The brass hulls I cut down to approx 2 3/4”. |

I am new here, and a side by side fan. Looking for 2 7/8" 10ga data. I can not find the attachments. What am I missing?

It’s disappeared and re posted a few pages in. Don’t know if it’s still there. I save it and have more data sent to me by other posters on here an other forums along with data I’ve found myself…

And here is some other data I’ve been forwarded and found myself…
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This my turkey load I found on track of the wolf. I use a 100 grains of DuPont FG instead of a 116 grains which is 4.5 drams. The 16 less charge tightens up my pattern. It recoils like a light 10 gauge or 12 gauge trap loads with the 100 grains of FG and 1 5/8oz load.

I just might try the 30 grains of 800x next week but with my usual SP-10 , ounce and a quarter instead of three eights and red beans in place of spacer wads .

I really like the load with the red rectangle around it which calls for 31 grains of Longshot in a Fed hull. Very low pressure load IMO. I have all the requirements of this recipe except the Fed hull. I have read on the forum where other members have stated that 10 gauge hulls (Rem, Fed, Ched) are all straight wall hulls and thus they will interchange recipes freely. What would the opinions be on using this recipe in a Rem or Ched 2 7/8" hull ?
