Hey Mike, I was there last week and spoke with them and they said their pressure gun was up and running again.They didn't test my loads till they got it fixed as I was told by them.Jeff

Thanks for sharing your load results, will put them in my reloading 3 ring binder for future reference. Dont have those powders currently, but you never know what you are gonna find.

Hey guys, I had a visit with Tom Armbrust this afternoon and I discussed with him some of the loads I had tested.In particularly the low pressure Long Shot loads.As noted by a couple posts they were quite erratic for pressure.I don't dought any of the results I got from Precision.Toms explanation of the Long Shot loads was with that particular powder being a slow burning powder,when you possibly didn't use enough to get pressures up towards 6500 - 8000 PSI it became erratic,as noted by the test results.This is possibly why Hodgdon doesn't list any loads that are in the 1200 fps range as the pressure drops too much and is not consistent.Makes sense to me as by testing results.Im going to bump up the powder a bit on a couple of those loads and get tested again just to see what happens.Im also going to send Tom a couple more short ten loads with the new BP1044 wads.I will try to load them to compare with a tested load with the Remington SP10 wad.Jeff

Jeff, I have had some very good success with Longshot in working low pressure loads up for my Damascus guns. I did have some inconsistency issues when the pressure was below about 5K but that is plenty low for the old guns. I "pirated" one of your 12 ga. loads, Thanks! Will try it soon.
