Kyle:
3/4oz. is all I shoot through my 20's. Go log on to the.. ShotgunWorld site and look under reloading/20ga 3/4oz thread of justice. Lots of info there.

I load 20ga. 2 1/2" Cheddite hulls with 3/4oz. using the Gualandi wads and 14.8 - 15.2 grains of Unique. It's a great load I use in both my fluid steel and composite barrel 20s.

AA or Gun Club Hull
15 gr 20/28 Claybuster 1078 wad 7/8 oz shot will get around 1200 fps @ around 7500 psi drop to 14.5 gr 20/28 and CB 1075 wad for a delightful little 3/4 oz loads that I use alot on grouse. And yeah I would shoot those Rem game loads, but would prefer lower velocity

Tomorrow or Saturday, me, the dog(Bert), and the Parker are going quail hunting. I'm going to take the RST shells that Garth gave me and go to my secret covey. Hopefully we have success. I'll keep y'all posted. Thanks for all the input!

Found this load in my reloading notebook--cant remember where I copied it from, but it basically matches my other loads with 20/28.
Cheddite 2 1/2" hull Win 209 primer( I would also use a cheddite primer here) 14.3 gr 20/28 powder Claybuster 1078 wad 7/8 lead--could sub 1075 wad and 3/4 oz 1200 fps @ 7200 psi. I may load a box or 2 of this tomorrow and see how it goes.

Harold, I just had tested a very similar load BUT paper hull.
Cheditte 2 1/2, Ched primer, 14.5 of 20/28, 7/8 #8, Sporting 20 wad. Came in at 1216 FPS and 10,395 PSI. I'm trying to get to 1200/8500 in paper for my 20s. Interesting, same load in plastic is significantly lower PSI. I gotta do some careful hull examination, not sure where but there must be serious volume difference plastic vs. paper, both Cheditte. |

Yeah, surprising. Mine used a different wad. I will try and find where the load came from.

Saturday’s bounty. 2 scalies. Bert pointed both. I missed about 5 before bagging these 2 with the Parker and RSTs-#8’s from Garth. I need more practice with it.
