12 ga powders

[Paul Harm]

Why all these different powders ? I think the guys were just saying what works for them. I think, right or wrong, that Clay Dot recoils more than other powders. But that's just me. He may find at the velocity and weight he wants to shoot some powders burn cleaner than others, could have less or more recoil, cost more or less, maybe easier to get, and so on. Also, if he finds a couple of powders he's happy with it'll be easier latter on if powders are hard to come by. American Select is a very nice powder along with RD, GD, Promo, and 700X. For me it's back to 700X because 12#s were given to me. Part of the fun of reloading is trying different powders and loads.

I won’t deny I like some powders a lot more then others . BUT when we had that ass in the White House a couple years ago and I assumed the psychotic broad was going to win the election I was buying anything I could get my hands on that I thought would serve my purposes . So now I have more options should we ever get in that situation again . Bottom line is having SOMETHING that will fill the bill and keep you going .

I have about 20 pounds of SR7625 in my uhm wharehouse LOL’s anyway that will keep me in 10 gauge bird , buck and slug loads as well as 12 , 16 and 20 buck/slug loads for the rest of my existence . I was a bit sad when I was down to six pounds but 18 pounds fell in my lap so to speak and my worries are cured . Now with Universal Clays , Unique , Red Dot , Green Dot , Blue Dot , WIN 296 and WIN 572 I’m pretty sure I’ve got all my shotgun and handgun needs covered for atleast 15 years .
