How would these loads perform with fiber wads?

Gualandi gives you data for both types of wads.


The velocities for the loads I have tried, using plastic wads, and this data fall between 1,150 and 1,250 FPS. The lighter loads having the higher FPS.

The load I just posted was changed from the data by using a Federal hull and Federal 209A primer. But it gives you an idea of what to expect.

Another update on 3N37 powder. I had the 1 1/8 oz. loads with 3N37 sit in my truck in 20 degree weather for 5 days, one night it was 15 degrees. I hunted each day and never had any issues. The more I use that load, the more I like it and so doesn't my 1100 and M37..... but the pheasants hate it.

3N37 has become a favorite. For my hunting applications it just works with no BS. For all my target and light hunting loads in the 16 gauge it's N320, for the same reason....no BS.
