16 ga. doves and ducks
Now that I've had a chance to do more than just shoot a few at the chrony, I'd like to share what's working well for me. I pirated one of these from Harry Collins (Thanks, Harry) and the other is nearly identical, just keeps the Bird Sheriff away from my duck blind. Have used 2 different wads, The Claybuster seems to give me slightly better 6 pt. crimps.
Cheddite or RST hulls - 2 1/2"
#209 Cheddite or #616 Fioche primer
15.7 gr. International
Sporting 16 wad
7/8 oz. #7 lead
Avg. 1133 FPS
I substitute a CB0100-16 wad and 7/8 oz. Bismuth #5 for ducks. Both give a soft recoil and fill my bag. I HAVE NOT HAD EITHER TESTED!!!
