[J.B. Books]

Since some Red Dot recently became available and powder is scarce I thought I would share these recipes from the 1995 Alliant Reloading Guide. I am not sure why Alliant stopped publishing Red Dot 20ga recipes, I have read that it has to do with the tube sets many Skeet shooter use but the pressures listed seem to be what I would expect from factory loads. For comparison I looked at a 12ga 7/8 and a 1 ounce recipes in the AA hull using the same components and the same amount of Red Dot in both the 1995 reloading guide and in the current Alliant on-line reloading guide. They gave identical velocity and pressure, so I don't think there has been any change to the powder that would affect pressure. (Note: some of the loads show a Federal 209 primer. That is not the same as the Federal 209A primer. The 209A is a magnum/hotter primer and higher pressures would be expected with it's use).
