It’s disappeared and re posted a few pages in. Don’t know if it’s still there. I save it and have more data sent to me by other posters on here an other forums along with data I’ve found myself…

And here is some other data I’ve been forwarded and found myself…




















This my turkey load I found on track of the wolf. I use a 100 grains of DuPont FG instead of a 116 grains which is 4.5 drams. The 16 less charge tightens up my pattern. It recoils like a light 10 gauge or 12 gauge trap loads with the 100 grains of FG and 1 5/8oz load.

I just might try the 30 grains of 800x next week but with my usual SP-10 , ounce and a quarter instead of three eights and red beans in place of spacer wads .

Default Hull Question

I really like the load with the red rectangle around it which calls for 31 grains of Longshot in a Fed hull. Very low pressure load IMO. I have all the requirements of this recipe except the Fed hull. I have read on the forum where other members have stated that 10 gauge hulls (Rem, Fed, Ched) are all straight wall hulls and thus they will interchange recipes freely. What would the opinions be on using this recipe in a Rem or Ched 2 7/8" hull ?

I’ve not got any Longshot at the moment . I do however have WIN 572 I ‘ll try that at some point in a REM or RST/Cheddite hull .

The federal hulls will be lower in pressure because of the fiber base. Cheddite hulls have greater volume so you will need to add an additional 1/8" 16ga card wad in the base of the shot cup. I have RST/Cheddite hulls if you need some.

Default New to the group!

Hello all! I am new to the forum and looking to gain some knowledge in regard to loading some 2 7/8 in loads for my grandfather's V-C 10 gauge that my father just gifted me. The gun means more to me and my father than any other gun, or item for that matter, in my possession. I have loaded TSS for my 12s but never tried loading 10 gauge bismuth in the 2 7/8in shell length. I have been reading through Mr. Lester's posts but have been unable to download his spreadsheet data for his 10 loads. Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Matt Hogue

Thank you, Mr. Lester for your quick response. I was able to print out your load data. This will give me a great place to start. Thanks again!

I was wondering about this recently I was comparing loads of the Cheddite Federal and Remington hulls the Cheddite required a bit more powder and still generated less pressures. These were steel loads however but from the looks of it the Cheddite hull is the roomiest of the bunch.
