I have been playing with ITX throughout the summer and hunted MN opener this past weekend using 1 1/8 oz ITX loads - FIO hull 36 grains Steel powder. The load is rated at 8500 PSI but since I roll crimped it should have further reduced the pressure. I was impressed. Being from the school that you need 1 3/8 of shot it has been a real change for me to move to the smaller loads. I was using a 1938 3" 12 gauge Francotte that started life as a 27/8 inch 10 gauge. I took at drake mallard at 35+ and some teal at 25 yards - clean kills. I have found the ITX does not pattern well in my Husqvarna. I suspect the tight bores and thick wads are the issue. Eventually I'll pick up some of the thinner RIO wads to make some test loads for the Husky. I see the ITX books has load in the 1 oz - 7400 PSI range using PB powder. Good Luck
