Default 16 ga. and Green Dot

Thought I would share this recipe, it was tested by Precision Reloading. I have a good supply of Green Dot that I need to start using. It may or may not mean anything but this Green Dot has the black cap.

2.5 inch Ceddite hulls 16ga. once fired
TUWG2116 Wad
Cheddite 209 primer
1oz. 7.5 shot
16gr. Green Dot
6 point crimp
Average Velocity 1197 fps
Average Pressure 8285 psi

I backed down to 7/8oz. shot and 15.6gr. powder and it is mild recoil and breaks clay targets with gusto.

This info is for educational purposes, do with it as you will. I have been using this recipe in a modern shotgun because I don't always shoot a Parker.
