I think DR16 works great in RGL's for 7/8 and 3/4 oz loads, no problems for me. I load mostly 2 1/2" cheddite shells now, and the DR16 works great with 3/4 oz and International (Hogdon website). It does not work well with 7/8 oz loads in 2 1/2, so I use the SG 16 wad there, with Universal or 7625. I have not tried the new CB 16 wad for 7/8 oz, but have loaded some 1 oz loads using the original CB 1 oz wad.
I have loaded up all my short 16 hulls, and may start in on a bag of 300+ RGL's using the DR16. Just dont know if I want to mess with changing all my press adjustments. My 2 1/2' 16 crimps look great, but am also loading 2 1/2" 20's and although passable/shootable, the crimps suck compared to the 16's--just cant get it figured out.
