Unique might be the best option but there are probably others in the same range. Cast bullet guys really seem to like Unique for moderate speed rifle loadings. |

I have no practical experience doing this, but doubt the balance will change significantly when you have it cut to 25" or 26". Ideally you'd have someone at a machine shop who could trim it ... |

Thanks for that, Tony, I'm going to have to check my Winchester 28s for the underlined HS as some of them are from the time I shot registered Skeet and a mix of AA and AAHS. I didn't reload back then ... |

That load looks to have plenty of pressure to back it down 100fps and retain good pressure. That or Red Dot might be key to getting good moderate velocity 7/8 and 3/4oz loadings in CF AA hulls. |

Dave, they'd have to do a lot of shooting every year to require that sort of maintenance. Consider me doubtful that's a reason they'd request the guns be sent back annually. I could see them wanting ... |

You can probably collect on that million bucks, Mike, some of the 12ga varieties have showed up locally and as you state the bread and butter products will and should be made first. |

It's not looking like the best fit for sub-1oz loadings at 1200fps or less, and being of relatively small grain size it will give some people fits with less than perfect matching of wads to cases. Be ... |

I used 1oz loads from the Winchester reloading booklet for 540, then switched to HS6 when I couldn't find 540 as they're supposed to be the same. Apparently they were or close enough. I used WAA16 w ... |
