It was a small custom ammo outfit , they are no longer is business.
I just ran across a odd 10 ga load . https://www.ariaballisticengineering...e-P-p127503785

Thats 3 3/4oz , would love to see what pressure that generates haha .


The 0000 load was basically like this one but from a different outfit .

Theres quite a few small custom ammo stores now selling exotic ammo.

I dont currently own a 10 ga 3.5" gun but its interesting to see new ammo developed for it .

I dont have a desire to shoot a 3+oz load out of a 10lb gun either , I done that once .

Well I think I’ve got a goodly supply of nice new WIN hulls coming . Ordered a roll crimper tool for my drill press . I’m debating whether to get 50 or so new REM 8 hulls just for roll crimping .

The three ball molds from Tanner Molds in the UK showed up today . They’re been floating around in the USPS for the last two weeks . Kinda strange it took six days for them to be made taken to the UK post office and make the trip to Chicago then two weeks to get from Chicago to central VA .

A few results this afternoon . Maybe after dinner I’ll see how 000000 buck stack in SP-8 shotcups or without the petals . Same for the .775” roundball.

It looks kinda promising ! It appears I might be able to shot the six pellets of 000000 with the wad cup still attached . And it appears that the .775” roundball with either one or two 1/8” 12 gauge cards in the bottom of the shot cup might work as well .

Just loaded a few . Loaded two more of the 730 grain .775” slug with International Clays but this time I put two wraps of masking tape instead of just one to tighten it a skoosh more going thru the choke . Then I loaded two of the .775” roundball with two 1/8” 12 gauge cards under it in the shot cup also with International Clays . And finally I loaded two with 000000 buck also pushed with International Clays and buffered . Only put six of the pellets in the two shells .

I hope yourslugs pattern well for you I wanted my round ball loads to pattern well out to 50 yards but it seems 30 yards is my limit...my buckshot loads do ok out to 40 yards I aint shot any buckshot in my single barrel davenport yet it has some choke in it..i m hoping to be able to stretch it out to 50 yards..good luck....charlie

Well haven’t been to the range yet . But I shot the 000000 loads and the punkin ball loads in the side yard an hour ago . Amazingly they did relatively well that is the buck load atleast . The two punkin balls from the right barrel hit the box but not anywhere close to each other or the aiming point . The first is the two punkin balls , then right barrel buck and the last is the buck in the left .

I still wanna get to the range possibly Monday in the AM to test loads in a 6.5x54 MS so after dinner tonight I think I’ll load two punkin balls to try in the left barrel and maybe two more with 000000 buck .

I thought of this..maybe if we sight down the center of each barrel we might get better scores out of the slugs... my bore diameter is .842 my round ball diameter is .835 im going to try your tape method to see if I can get better accuracy out of my gun....I f I can get my gun to shoot out to 50 yards with good hits I will be satisfied with it...I m better with my slingshot than I am with my pumpkin ball loads....charlie
