I found very few tested loads using that wad which I believe has been sold with other names in the past; Deci-Max and VP100. I have substituted it for an SP10 with the Fed hull 1 1/8 ox 19 grain Red Dot load without issue. Pressure on that load being 6700 psi leaves some room to make such a deviation in my mind. Dimensions are extremely close to the SP10. I think I had to use just a little bit more filler to get a proper crimp. Worked fine.
