Howdy the forum,
Birdshot of Hodgdon announced some new 16ga load data:
" www.hodgdon.com - click on data - select cowboy action - scroll down watching menu on the left side
Lighter loads with current components"
In looking through the data, there is a wad listed as BPG/BP. It sounds like a Ballistic Products wad, but I cannot find it in my BP catalog in the 16ga wad section, or on BP's website.
Can someone identify it for me?
Thanks,
HHH |

Still very limited and I don't see anything in 7/8. There are dozens of light loads available from the low pressure group. Hodgden doesn't even dent the surface. I've been reloading 2.5" low pressure loads that perform amazingly well. I don't shoot cowboy/action, but I bet they would be great in that application. |
