Default 12ga cheddite 2 1/2 in

I have the 2 1/2 cheddite hulls, over powder and shot cards and circle fly fiber wads, need the powder weight for sr 7625 and sr 4756 for the low pressure loads for my damascus guns, with the powder no longer made can't find the data. Called ballistic prod today , they have nothing on those powders or black powder loadings in their manuals. Anyone know a load listing that also gives the PSI rating for lower pressure ? Do not want to use plastic wads.

thanks kurt

This may be of no help, but my 12ga, 2 1/2" Paper Cheddite loads were with 20grs. of PB, HCDX (Helix Cushion Driver) plastic wad and roll crimped.
It's been my experience that PB and 7625 performed alike. They were a fairly soft load, however, I never had them tested.

Have you looked at the Hogdon reloading site? They did post loads for 7625. Also Google IMR and see if you find a digital copy of an old load Hercules manual. There was one posted to Shotgun World about 7-8 months ago. I ran out of 7625 years ago, so I did not download that manual.
