I will be there hope the weather cooperates.
Pete & Scott I have used your 10 gauge load, you mentioned at last years New Year’s Day shoot. The gas seal and 12 gauge wad, the red dot for some trap shooting and it works well, very easy to shoot.
I’m doing a pheasant tower shoot this spring and was thinking of taking the 10 gauge. I have got some lead numbers 6’s and wondered if you had any suggestions on a load ?

How tall are the shots?

Was thinking of you guys this morning, hopefully Jan 20 is better. We have a blustery, sunny and somewhat chilly day here in Pa.

I try not to take any shots more then 40 to 50 yards
Most are in the 30 +/- range

I can’t answer for the two you asked but I use a 10 gauge at most tower shoots I do anylonger . And I use my old stand by Ross Seyfried load of 30 grains of SR7625 1 1/4 ounces shot an SP-10 wad and a 16 gauge 1/8” card in the bottom of the shot cup . I typically put an over shot card over the shot inside the folded crimp to cut back on any shell length deviations and shot leakers . I use that same charge etc for most applications of the 10 be it any size bird shot , bismuth or buckshot as long as they’re all in the 1 1/4 to slightly heavier realm .

Stan, I've been assigned to keep track of you and keep you out of trouble. A person can get into a lot of trouble in Amish country!
