This is all I have, and it's a spreader load. I worked it up and had it tested by Precision Reloading and the pressure/FPS are from their tests. Your bushing may vary this is what threw 19g for me. It shoots great and birds go poof inside 25 yards. My chokes are all M/F or M+/F

- MEC 600Jr Mk V
- Cheddite 2.5"
- Cheddite 209 Primer
- Dispersor X Short wad DX12S (Ballistic Products)
- 1oz #8 (1 oz bar)
- 19gr Green Dot
- #34 bushing
- 6702PSI 1224FPS
