I was able to do the same after the powders were dropped. I really like the SR7625 for low pressure /good velocity loads in my 16 ga. and recalled reading a article by Ross Seyfreid in Guns & Ammo from the 80's where he was extolling the use of IMR4756 in Damascus barrels. (Greener hammer guns) At the time I never thought I'd have a use for it, but that has changed. Now that I'm a light/ short 10 user I like the velocity/pressure application with this powder. Planning on using 4756 with 1&1/4 oz. bismuth for non toxic applications. This load worked very well with lead on the clays course with just a slight increase in felt recoil over the Red Dot 1&1/8 oz. loading. Checked inventory at a local shop I frequent and they had ten 8 pounders and a dozen 1 pounder bottles back in the magazine. Probably a bit hard to move and they were happy to sell me 3 of the 8 pounders. Also added to my 7625 supply. Feel like I'm good to go for the future and these powders will get used. Both hammer guns fit well and are great fun to shoot. They will have little time resting in the gun safe!
