I loaded up 6 to put on the chrony:
New Cheddite hull trimmed to 2 7/8
Cheddite primer
18.8 grs Red Dot (MEC #33)
Rem SP 10 wad
1 1/8 oz #7.5
One 12 Ga 1/4" and two 16 Ga 1/8" cork fillers
6 shot average of 1,182 FPS

It's off to the Sporting Clays course New Years day for some fun with 10.

So how did the low octane loads do on the course for you ? I’ve used the 1 1/8 with 18.6 in the 10 at skeet , trap and 5 stand with pretty satisfying results . But I gotta admit I still prefer the 1 1/4 ounce with 30 grains of SR7625 . That 1 1/4 load with 6’s might knock over a handful of squirrels in the next couple weeks
