Hi Jack, Federal Hull trimmed to 2 7/8", Fiocchi 616 (209) primer, 19gr of Red Dot, SP10 wad, 1/2" fiber wad, 1 1/8 ounce of shot, 6 point crimp.
19 grains of RD feels pretty tame in the 10ga. I don't know what it develops for pressure but you can find 19 to 20 gr loads of Red Dot pushing 1 1/8 ounce in Federal 12ga hulls with that primer at 8200psi. Pressure will be lower in a 10. I found with the Short Ten many readily available powders; Red Dot, Green Dot, 700-x work great but we have been left for the most part to use our head and come up with some loads of our own.
