28 gauge long shot

[Bill Murphy]

I played the silly game on the Hodgdon website and got a whole raft of loads in the 1225 to 1300 fps range. I had selected Longshot, Remington hulls and W209 primers what many of us may select. The pressures, as you may suspect, were in the stratosphere. Where are the standard skeet loads in the 1175 to 1200 fps range?

I saw quite a few loads in the 1200 FPS range for Longshot and 3/4 oz of shot. I plugged in Cheddite and Winchester primers with Fiocchi and Winchester hulls.

Bill, if you use Cheddite primers instead of Remington, 4 out of 6 loads they show for 3/4 oz and Longshot with Remington target hulls are 1200 FPS

[Double Lab]

Yep, 1200fps and moderate pressures for a 28. Plenty of options.
