I prefer Unique but there are some nice Green Dot loads that produce moderate chamber pressure and reasonable velocities.
Would I be able to do this with my a size master reloader? I have just realized that I don't really need to be loading 1oz shells, I can just shoots the RST's at the few shots I get at grouse and reload the hulls with a lighter 7/8oz load for clays.

So does anyone have a great 7/8 recipe using unique powder since this is what I already use for my 28 reloads?
