Paul, assuming your SBT barrel has not been messed with, the lock up is tight, and the wood sound, you can shoot any legal trap load, no problem.

I reload 12 gauge 2 3/4 inch shells in 0.5, 0.6 and 0.75 ounce lead shot loads using Alliant Extra Lite powder and Claybuster CB 0175-12 wads.

Nice mild loads for shooting in my Fox doubles.

I load 12ga, 20ga and 410 using 2 presses made by Savage Arms in the late 1960's. I like Red Dot for 12ga, Green Dot for 20ga and 410 f0r the 410. For use in Parkers I have only loaded 20ga for use in Vulcan steel barrels.

Default Reloading for Parker's

I load for a VHS 12ga 7/8 oz and 1 oz, custom VH 16 ga 0 frame 3/4 oz and 7/8 oz and repro 28 ga 3/4 oz. I have been shooting sporting clays for some time and purchased 1 ton of shot #7' 8' 8.5 and 9 for $ 16.25 a bag. I'm down to 12 bags but enjoy loading for my Parker's and other guns , as well as metallic cartridges.
