Hey Pete!

Thanks for doing this. From the ITX loads listed on BPI data this one looks like the lowest pressure. While not "low" pressure I'm going to try it in my #3 Frame Damascus Parkers. One could reduce the powder by a grain or two to lessen the pressure and velocity.

Note: Any gun that I'll shoot the below load in will of course have barrels in good condition with adaquate barrel wall thickness!

L0AD# 110805-3291 (Perfect Duck)
HULL: Federal 10ga. 2 7/8”
PRIMER: FED209A
PROPELLANT: IMR SR7625 34.0 Grains
WAD: VP100
SHOT: 1 1/4 oz. (547 gr.) ITX #2(Mallard) (#4 smaller ducks)
BUFFER: none
ROLL CRIMP: ROLL with COS12 as the over shot card
Result: PSI 9700 FPS 1395
