It's been awhile since I have posted what I call the Comprehensive 2 7/8" 10ga reloading data spreadsheet. This is something I started many years ago, an effort to catalog all published reloading data for the Short Ten. Many recipes use obsolete components but occasionally those components become available to some of us. I have tried to be diligent and reference the source of the data for each load. I do think there have been changes to powders over the years and I would not use some of the loads that were published 40+ years ago and have made notes to that affect. Many thanks to those members who have shared their recent load testing results with us. You have all helped keep the great old Short Ten going. Attached is the spreadsheet updated through September 2017. I look forward to seeing additional test results in the future and will update the spreadsheet at least annually.

Reminder, you use these loads at your own risk and many of these loads may not be suitable for composite barrel guns.

Thanks. Even though I don't load for hunting there are some helpful waterfowl loads plus others.
