I am a fan of 700-x, from 3/4 oz 20 ga to 1 1/4 oz 10 ga loads.
most loads you load at 1150 fps are 5800 to 7000 psi depending on ga. Have been shooing 700-x from the 1970s to date scott

I use Clays for 7/8oz loads for sporting clays and skeet and International for 1oz. for trap in my league. Consider also using 8.5 shot. I use size #8.5 shot for each for less payload per shell (easy for gun and the shoulder) but has more pellet count than #8 and #7 1/2 vs 1 1/8oz loads My 1oz load for trap with Federal components with International with a full choke W97 Black Diamond Tournament Grade smokes targets.

I have used both clays and international clays for low pressure 12's with either 7/8th or 1oz shot charges.

I use Clay Dot for 7/8 and 1 oz loads from the Alliant website. I use same powder weight for both, but different wad. The 7/8 is a great load at 1,200 FPS.

My hesitation with 700x would be that it may go the way of SR7625. If you are a one-powder guy, consider something a bit more modern. Lots of great options presented above.

I like 700X, and if it does disappear there's still plenty around to buy before you go to a new powder. Going to a different powder is no big deal. For those of us who reload a lot, back during the powder shortage we had to try different powders. If it were me, I'd contact Hodgdons and Allaint on the web and ask for their reloading manuals to be sent to you. They're small and fairly thin, but hold a lot of info that you can easily compare. It's much easier than trying to do it on their web sites. When you get up to 1 1/8oz and above, the choices go down for low pressure loads. Good luck. Paul
