Low pressure shells

[Den]

I emailed Cheddite and they responded relating to Herters Low Recoil

Dear Sir,



12gauge Low Recoil 1oz. has velocity 1,060 FPS (recorded at 1 meter from the barrel) and 8195 PSI as pressure.

Instead 16gauge we don’t have any low recoil and any shotshell in 7/8 oz ,but only Dove and Quail 1 oz. , If you refer to this , the velocity is 1,165 FPS (recorded at 1 meter from the barrel) and 8775 PSI as pressure.

[C.O.B.]

B&P marketed a low pressure 12ga called Sub Sound at 110 FPS but it's no longer imported. There is an Italian company called Clever that makes some nice shooting shells. The have a 3/4oz 20 at IIRC 1100 FPS but I don't know what the pressure is and haven't been able to find out. I suppose I'll have to send them out to be tested. I know I can't tell the difference between them and my reloads but that's not a valid comparison.
