Unique powder help

[6pt-Sika]

Hodgdon HS-6 is the sane thing as the old WIN 540 . 540 was the go to Winchester powder for the 28 . I think I used up close to 65 pounds of WIN 540 in the 28 when I was shooting skeet .

I understand not wanting to need keeping to many powders on your shelf . However I took a different approach starting when the Obamite was in office . I started getting any and everything I could find that would possibly work in my applications . And I’ve not been bothered so far by the powder shortages . If you already know your options the question of what to get doesn’t arise , also if you stock up before you need anything helps a bit also .

That's been my philosophy for years now.

Longshot is what your looking for and it's currently available.

Guys thanks for the suggestions.
It looks like Long shot maybe the one to go to.
Lately I just reload for the specialty shells,
12 and 16 (2-1/2”) and the more expensive 28’s and 410’s.
Doing a quick figure on the cost of components a box of 12’s
Cost about $8 per box and I have been buying them thru the club for the same price.

Switched to Longshot for several gauges as powder dried up. Seems like it's slightly dirty, your 1100 might not like it, but I've shot hundreds of rounds in my doubles, love the low pressures. Cheap too.
