On page one there is a load for Nice Shot using Federal Hull and 1 3/8 ounce of Nice Shot. I think Frank Cronin has shot this load and likes it.

On the third page there are some loads using Federal Hull and SR7625 with 1 1/4 ounce of Bismuth. I have used 30 grains of SR7625 and used a 6 point crimp without issue.
Peter

you have no idea how much I have studied your chart - its in an open window right now (you have really done us short 10 newbies a service collecting all that in one place)

Federals hulls are on back order every where

i saw that load, and as soon as I can mug some goose hunter for his Federal hulls I intend to load that one. Almost tempted to buy a box of factory loads and a 10 bore auto and make my own empty hulls.

As it is, the only 10 ga hulls I can find are Remingtons, and since Mr. Bell's data refers to the outside printing (which isn't on mew hulls) to identify the hull, I am being conservative with the loads.

I guess a second part of the question should have been does any one see a performance difference between Bismuth and Nice Shot.
