I never use plastic wads with black powder. I use fiber wads in brass, zinc (Alcan) or Federal paper hulls. I have used Fg and FFg. I want to try loading some very light smokeless load in my Damascus guns. I shot some Polywad vintners in my PH, and it seemed to like them. I have shot standard factory smokeless loads in it (and in my GHs), but they are getting mighty old. I have some 3" brass shells I am going to load up with Fg for my Ithaca heavy duck one day soon. That may be fun.

I guess I'll give CB a call and ask them about using these 0175. Alliant shows a pretty good 7/8 recipe using Clay Dot and CB2100-12 (12S0) only 6400 in pressure! I may just try that one.
