Hello, I am new to reloading 10ga but not reloading. Recently got a 1860 Parker Brothers 10 ga, bottom lock, that I love and want to shoot it more. Looking to shoot in the upcoming Fall Side by Side. But I am *really* struggling to find 10ga components - I knew it would be difficult but I had no idea! Reading through this thread I can get most of these components except the Red Dot; as noted Alliant will not have for a while.

Reading 6pt-Sika's post, I want to make sure I am understanding this, using WSH, 21.7 gr for this load. Is that right?

I load WSH a **lot** for my 12ga reloads and have plenty. Would be great if I could use this for a 10ga load.

From this thread, I am thinking the recipe would be:
10ga Cheddite Hull 2 7/8"
Cheddite 209
21.7 gr WSH (Winchester Super Handicap)
BP-1044 with one 16ga Fiber Cushion Filler Wad 1/2" in the shot cup
1 1/8oz #7 1/2 lead
6 fold crimp

I can get everything from BPI, just want to make sure I am reading this right.

Thanks,
Eddie
