I put together 6 rounds to try the parker out with. Think I will need a drill press and some kind of a jig to hold the shell. It is hard on your hands. Had already used a small piece of foam to take up some of the space. Worked great. I need to find a primeing cup for this press. Do you know if the standard primeing cup fits this press. Precisions add for this part say's that it wont fit the 600 and 650 before 1987 but nothing about the 310 press. Wish I still had my lathes and mills. I would just make the parts.

Call Mec - they'll take care of you. I worked up a load of 20.5grs of PB and 1oz with the Rem SP-10 - shot great without the recoil. Also made one up with fiber wads but it took 2 1/2 filler wads to bring the shot up high enough to crimp. Didn't like that. That load is the same for 12ga so 10ga load should have a lot less pressure.

I used the lightest load for a 12ga out of lymans black powder hand book. 3 drams, 82 gr. 1 oz. shot with a over powder card and coushion wad plus over shot card and small piece of stirafoam with a roll crimp. Basicly the same load I use to shoot out of my muzzleloader. Hopefully my scedule will allow me to fire it in the next couple of days. Now if i can just find some squirles in alabama to shoot at.

Mr Harm. Sorry it took so long to get around to tryinthe 10ga reloads. They worked great. Fired the old parker today. The recoil was very light with the 3 dram 1 oz bp load. Hell my 28ga kicked harder. Did not pattern the load because I plan on switching to your smokeless load. Will have to order the 16 ga over powder wads first. thanks

Order the 16ga 1/2" cushion wads - that way you can cut them to the thickness you want.

Thats an excellent idea. I will do that. Do the wad pettels have ot be trimmed back for 2 5/8 hulls.
