These are a straight wall wad so I use Federal hulls.

Here is my recipe with 7/8 oz loads that I got tested from Precision. I use once fired Federal Top Gun hulls for "use 'em once and toss 'em" that are easy to find at your local range hull buckets.

Federal Gold Medal or Top Gun Hull
Federal 209 primer
18.2 grains Hodgdon CLAYS
DX12S spreader wad + 16 gauge OSC over the shot
7/8 oz of lead shot

8680 PSI
1270 FPS

Great load and patterns. Opens a full choke to IC.

Higher FPS helps disperse the shot quicker when the shot leaves the barrel.
