My go to recipes for 2 1/2" 16g are
-RST hull, 7/8 oz, Sporting 16 wad, 16.3g Unique
- RST hull, 7/8 oz, BP 16 Short wad, 16.4g PB. For spreader I cut an X-Stream insert in half (crosswise)
Nice load from John Davis for 2 3/4" hunting (I adapted it for clays)-
RST or Fiocchi hull, 1 oz, SG16 wad (I add 1/2 of a 1/4" 16g fiber wad to fill), 22.3g Longshot. Tested by Tom Armbrust to 1196 FPS and 5440 PSI. For a 2 3/4" clays load drop the shot charge to 7/8 oz and add more fiber wad to fill the column. This recipe is good for upland birds and clays!!
