Default 16 ga load tinkering

19.9 gr universal in a chedite 2.5" hull with ched primer gulandi wad and 7/8 oz of shot.
Looks like a nice load but I have read that its not very popular on this site. Ive shot plenty of these in the woods but found that I could back off the powder quite a bit and have a more pleasant clays experience. 2 bushings less and I was measuring 18.4 gr of same powder with the cx2000 primers. They all shoot fine at least in summer, no off sounds or feel. Very little unburned powder. I have no access to a chronograph but must assume they are going slower than the 1150 posted velocity. perhaps someone else knows?
