Bruce, I recently posted some tested 1 oz. 12 ga. loads with Longshot. I have had really good results with it in several gauges for good velocity and low pressure. It seems to be one of the few powders currently available from several vendors. I have no clue how it will react to different hulls and components but here are the results I got.

Sorry, these were International! My mistake, the recent Longshot testing was 10 and 20 ga.

These were "cooked" specifically for a 12 ga. Damascus GH gun I recently acquired. Looking for 1200 FPS and sub 6K. Easy on an older gun/stock/shooter!
