Pete, thanks for the link - but I can't get it to work. I filled out the top part - couldn't see how to do the bottom. Hit calculate and a bunch of junk came up. I've been reloading 3/4oz shells for about a year now and have found no difference than when shooting 7/8 or 1oz loads. A fellow at our club who shoots register trap tried the 3/4oz loads and claimed they didn't shoot as high as his 1oz loads. I've never pattered mine because I've been doing so good with them I'm afraid to. Ya that's stupid, but if I can break SC's targets out to 40/45yds hard, I don't want to know. I just got this old rusty beat up 10ga 1882 Rem hammergun and using Gaugemates to shoot 12ga 3/4oz loads I've been shooting some of my best scores, and it has over .030 chokes. Since I had the chambers of both guns opened to 2 7/8", tomorrow I'm gonna try my Parker 10ga lifter with the Gaugemates - hope I do as good. Both guns are about the same except the Parker looks a lot nicer seeing how someone before me had the damascus barrels redone. It's fun to shoot 3/4oz through a 10ga.
