3/4oz 12ga

[Paul Harm]

Mine is any Remington hull, 16.4grs of Promo [ same as Red Dot ] , CB-0175 wad, Cheddite primer, and the shot. Clay Dot, Extra Lite, Or Red Dot all give low pressue for 15 to 17 grains. I believe Clays and Clay Dot are the same and Red Dot and Promo are the same. Paul

Thanks guys for the info. I am new to reloading and loaded up some 7/8 oz 16 ga. loads this weekend using DR 16 wad and green dot. I haven't got to shoot any yet. I was given 2 MEC 600 jr's , a 16 and a twelve, and need to get the necessary components for the 12. I have a Ugartechea 12 sxs under 7 lbs. and also a Francotte 12-also under 7--this would make them much more enjoyable to shoot. Don't have any Parker 12s, but do have a DHE 16,VH 16, and a VH 20. I have a thin face and recoil seems to hit me right on the cheek bone--these loads sound great for that.

Kensal,
Mec bushing chart shows the #27 bushing yielding 15.8 gr X-lite not 14. Are these bushings actually off that much? Maybe I will have to get a scale-- chart shows #23 bushing@ 13.7 gr. and #24 @ 14.4 gr Extra-lite.

I don't see a Clay Buster 0175 12 gauge wad in Precision Reloading ?

They do however show a 0178 that is supposed to be their copy of the Winchester WAA12L wad .
