Default Remington Peters 28g hulls

I was given a big bunch of these by a patient of mine (500 or so). My 12 year old wants to shoot and has a Savage Stevens 555 24" 28 g on the way and I want to bring her to Mikes to shoot clays, but can't find a low recoil load on line for 28g for this hull. Looks to be a separate plastic base wad not one piece compression formed. I can toss them if needed. ANY help at all appreciated.

Andy,
Check out the Alliant website below. I use and prefer 20/28 but there are a number of loads you could use. If the 3/4oz loads are too much for your child just reduce the payload to 5/8oz.

Thank you Daryl, so I assume I load them same as the Remington STS even though it doesn't appear to be a one piece hull? Sorry, I'm still new to this.

Andy,
Can you post a photo of exactly which hull you have? Best to ID it from that to make sure which loading you should try.

All my 28 loads are pushed with Unique or Universal .

Not saying they're necissarily lite but they roll targets and quail up well enough .

I use old AA hulls new HS AA hulls and Remington STS hulls .

These are the hulls I was given. Looks like a black plastic base wad and the tube does look tapered. If I can't use them I can't use them.

I’d look at the loads for the other hulls and try two of these to see if all the stuff will fit , might even drop back a grain of powder . If they closed okay I’d try them down thru the woods or across a skeet field . Preferably over a Chrony shooting for 1100 FPS .

Andy,
Being a ribbed hull, those are the "SP" bodies, not "STS". Just follow the published recipes for the "SP" hull. There is not much internal volume difference, but I recommend strictly following the recipe for whichever propellant/primer/wad combination you are going to use.
