OK I did pay for a membership for the low pressure group many moons ago
I have kind of lost track as to how to use the group and I once down loaded a bunch of loads. That aside can someone help me with possibly finding a load using the following components I have on hand.
Load needs to be under 1200 fps and preferably under 9000 psi
Rem RP hulls
700X powder
Win AAA wads
CCI or Win 209 primers.
Thank you very much |

Have you also joined the FREE Yahoo group?
http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/reloading16gauge/
I looked in yahoo and no loads with those primers.
And the load listed even though in the target velocity zone were at 11,000 psi

I am 90% sure that my list has no 700x loads with the desired results. That's a listing of over 2,000 loads, maybe closer to 3,000. Can look for sure tomorrow. |

Thanks Mike and Charlie. Yes I did join the free group also.
I have a surplus of 700X I have just finished loading a load
that was
700X 12.8 gr
CCI 209 primer
REm SP16 wad
1075 fps and 9700 psi
I used up all my Rem sp16 wads and I have a couple full bags of WAA16 wads
So looking for a load that would allow the use of the WAA16 wads.
I have never swapped any components from a published load so not sure about just switching wads. Would I dare switch the wads? |

Sure, load 3 of your 700/WAA combos up and send to Tom Armbrust for testing/verification.

Okay found a 1 oz using your components, but it is not around 1,200 and it is well over your 9,000 PSI.
If I was going to send a load in trying to get close to your results I'd load less than 13.0 of 700x. |
