Default Winchester Super Handcap

About a year ago I looked over Winchester Super Handicap loads for a 12 gauge 1 1/8 ounce in AA and STS hulls . I took the powder charges to try in 10 gauge using REM or Cheddar hulls with SP-10 wads and they worked okay on clay targets with no excessive recoil . This past week I loaded some with 1 1/4 ounces at the lower 1 1/8 powder charge weights using REM hulls with both SP-10 and BPI wads and then in Cheddar hulls with both SP-10 and BPI wads . I shot them in a 2 frame EH 28” that for a 10 gauge is relatively lightweight . All eight shells sounded good when I set them off , recoil was not excessive and they did a decent job trimming limbs . I didn’t run over a Chrony but I’d guess they were 1050-1125 fps . I used a #20 MEC bushing that’s supposed to throw 18.6 grains of WSH . By no means am I telling anyone to load as I did , however for my own use they seem to have worked okay in my parameters .
