New Published Data 2 7/8" 10 gauge

[Pete Lester]

I was talking to Scott this morning and he said he saw Hodgdon has published some new data for reloading the 2 7/8" 10ga. Three 1 1/4 ounce loads are listed using IMR Blue, Longshot and Win 572 powders. Pressures are 6500 to 7400 psi, velocities 1200 to 1225. This is great news and I hope over time they expand the number of 2 7/8" 10ga loadings. It probably wouldn't hurt to send them an e-mail thanking them for the data and expressing a desire to see more recipes for the Short Ten in the future.

Wow I like that longshot load for Turkey hunting. Pete thanks for posting great news for us big bore shooters.

That’s interesting, several months ago Hodgdon published 2 1/2 inch 16 G data too.

Will have a good look at the short 10 loads
