I was in hopes of having a 1 3/8 ounce charge bar and I didn’t so I loaded some for the HE today in 3” hulls using 1 1/2 ounces of shot pushed by 39 grains of Blue Dot . Some with SP-12 wads and some with WAA12F114 wads . Shot one of each in the snail at the shop in an 870 Express and it all looks good and recoil wasn’t excessive . I’m quite sure the weight of the HE will make them even more pleasent .
