Paul;
Here you go, simply highlight, copy & then paste;

"I love the performance of Kent TM shot but the factory shells generate a pressure of 10000 psi plus. I felt uncomfortable shooting the factory loads in my vintage guns, even my Super Foxes and #3 frame 12 ga. Parkers. So I developed a load from harvested TM shot from factory loads and had it tested. The load is 12ga 2 3/4" Cheddite hull, 209 Cheddite primer, 28.5 GR Longshot, Remington Fig. 8 wad, 1 1/4 oz. #5 Kent TM. 1204 FPS, EV. 23, 5466 PSI. EV. 300.
I am very happy with how mild the load is. I am NOT Recommending this load it is for information only. Craig Larter"

What I do not get is the 10 gauge connection, everything here looks 12 to me. What am I missing?

Posted as a stand alone topic on tested non-toxic load data. Reference made to tested data he submitted for the 19.0 grains of Red Dot and 1&1/8 oz. shot using all three hulls. (Remington, Federal and Cheddite). This 10 gauge 2&7/8 Red Dot load is simply just great for target use and some hunting applications. His data used 16 gauge hard nitro cards to fill the shot cup for good crimps. I and others use a fiber wad to achieve the same charge height. I use a lubed fiber filler to keep the flying bits under control. Pressure difference is not worth mentioning.

I screwed up - it's a low pressure 12ga load, not a 10. Sorry.
