Using Cheddite and Federal hulls, Winchester 209 primers and Gualandi 1621 wads I load17.5 grains of Unique for 7/8th ounce loads and for 1 ounce loads I use 19.5 grains of Unique and the Gualandi 1618 wad. Both are in the 1150 fps MV range and chamber pressures are sub 9K. I'm pretty much old school so I trim my hulls to 2 9/16th inches and roll crimp. I think BPI sells the Gualandi 1618 wad as the SG16 and the 1621 wad as the SG16L. I really hate it when some retailers change the names from the manufactures designation, there is enough confusion in this world.
