The Lyman, Alliant and Hogdon data is good. I have some older powder company booklets too. I have a few spreadsheets for Green Dot and 700-X as well. I think I either copied them here or at the U.K groups. Search the Ammunition and reloading section here, there is a lot of info. |

I'm pretty new to the gauge myself. My experience was similar to yours. I hunted with a Citori for most of the season last year. I then bought another 16. I would love a 525 in 16 gauge. Mine is a gran lightning but I have a 525 feather in 12 ga that has been my favorite bird gun/NSTRA gun for quite some time.
Enjoy |

Thanks! It's good to be with like-minded people. I usually stay away from forums these days. But shooting a 16 gauge can be lonely. |

I hear you. This is the only forum that I have been active on for several years now. I almost went over to Shotgun World the other day then remembered things like Randy Wakeman, social media style arguments, and mass confusion. Since I had already checked in here, I turned the computer off and grabbed some reading material. |

Welcome to the forum. Glad to hear the best gauge has found it’s way into your gun cabinet.
Good Hunting,
