Reloading the 16 ga.

[Aaron Beck]

It may be useful to look at a powder burn rate chart, I tried to attach one but failed. Since components are scarce, anything near a known load is worth considering. In the case of 7625, you have universal (not currently made) unique and 20/28 as well as some others which arent known shotgun powders. Since green dot proved too hot for 7/8 in a 16 with your components, I would guess extra light would be even worse but thats just going by the chart.

Thanks for the tip regarding the charts. I found a couple. You know…. I’m starting to regret that “C” I earned in High School Physics.😁

Many can (but probably won’t) post the same regret because of other interests during high school Chem and Physics classes …… coach had them out practicing on the gridiron or shooting hoops, chasing girls, daydreaming about cars, etc.
