Hi all, looking for a load using Federal plastic hulls, Promo powder and Win 209 or Cheddite primers. Here's what I'd like to load:

7/8oz payload

8000psi or lower

1200fps or slower

Thanks so much!

Greg

Greg,
Promo's a pretty fast powder -equivalent to Red Dot. Gonna be tough to get it down to 8,000 psi. Just so you know Promo is really dirty and caused my Fox 12 gauge to malfunction due to unburned powder working its way into the action. Good luck with your load.
Look here http://www.16ga.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16930&highlight=red+dot
Regards,
Jeff

I am using Unique for low pressure 16s. Problem for me is the wad. You can use fillers to cut larger wads capacity but it would be a lot better with a 7/8 oz wad

Sure wish the DRs would arrive
