Load #2
10 Gauge
Hull: Federal 3.5”
Primer : CCI-209
Powder: 41.0grs SR-4756
Wad Column: BPD-10 (molly or HBN coated with three petals split 2/3 the length of the wad) – (2) 1/4” felt or wool wads in the bottom of the cup
Buffer: Ground polyethylene (Ballistic products SD-C works well - add about 2 grams of molybdenum disulfide to 1 pound of buffer) – add buffer with gentle tapping till all interstitial sites are filled and the buffer is level with the top of the shot column.
Shot: 38 pellets lead 4-buck
Crimp: Roll crimp with Ballistic products 12ga. frangible plastic over shot disk and seal the edges with a soft silicone (a small syringe works well for this).
Velocity: 1390fps
Pressure: 10.9KPSI
Notes: This load works well over a wide temperature range and also functions well in auto loaders. This load has patterned very tightly for me in a variety of guns/chokes, often putting many more pellets on target than much heavier loads.
