That's the load I shoot for 16 yard singles and second shot in doubles trap. I step it up to 3 drams for handicap. My Parker SBT's digest them on a regular basis with no problems. My GHE likes the 2 3/4 dram as well. But that's just me and my Parkers and I'm not making any recommendations.

I think just about everything I handload for 12 16 or 20 will equal the pressure level for these . FWIW I shoot the same handloads in my 12 and 16 hammerguns as I do in the hammerless . Also the factory pigeon loads I used last year at pigeon shoots are a bit hotter than these as the pigeon loads are 1 1/4 ounce 1300 FPS+ . And yeah in the pigeon ring I have three Parker 12's I prefer to shoot .
