Thank you John. Happen to have any for a 2 1/2" Cheddite? Or can I try this in the Cheddite hull? Pressures looks pretty low.

Since reading this I’ve added another 6-8 pounds of Longshot to my stockpile , also more Herco and Super Handicap . I should hope to live long enough to shoot up all I’ve accumulated in the recent month or so . One things for sure I’m going to work at it

Andy, these are the only ones I had and have no idea what the results with 2 1/2" shells might be. Good luck, John

Some one on here had a Longshot load tested with 2.5" cheditte hull and primer , believe it was 21.0grs . IIRC it was around 1200 fps and low pressure .

Found it. But uses a win 209 primer
