I just got a new Browning A5 Sweet 16 in Camo and I'm heading to AR in a few days but I don't have any 16ga duck loads. Local stores don't have anything either. I reload a bunch of lead for light duty and clay games in 16ga and I load 12ga bismuth. However I haven't ever made up any 16ga for waterfowl. I was hoping a few of you guys had some tested recipes I could crank out without going through the trials process. I have lots of options except for wads. Here is a list:
Unique
Blue Dot
Longshot
I have other powders but these are probably best for the purpose.
#3.5 and #5 & #6 Bismuth
Here's the problem...all I have in Wads are CB0078 & CB0100 plus I have enough TUWZ2M16GA for a box or two which would be enough.
I have Cheddite primers and Cheddite and Fiocchi Hulls.
Hoping someone here has some ideas...thx in advance and Happy New Year!

Hodgdon reloading site has a few bis recipes available with your components, the one in the 8k 1350 range would be all you need for decoyed quakers.
Best of luck with the hunt |
