Default More 8g Recipes Comingh

I will be testing loads with VihtaVouri and Vectan powders. Some are in the burn rates of already tested USA made powders and should be suitable for our 1 1/2 oz purposes. Stay tuned. There will be more data in Parker Pages, including some buck and slug load data.

Great work Mike!! I hope more 8ga Parker owners start shooting their cannons with so many reloading recipes and reloading equipment available. Reloading for the big guns is very simple and the need for expensive reloading gear can be minimized by roll crimping. I promise shooting the 8 will put a big smile on your face.
