Do note that what Larry mentioned was the old Super Pigeon load @ 3-1, not the 3 3/4-1 High-Velocity load. A big difference between them.

Like 33 ft-lbs of recoil in an 8# gun vs 26.3 ft-lbs. But that High Velocity 3 3/4 DE load is the Super-X formula, which has been around for a long time. And which is now regarded by some as a real slow poke, compared to the 1400 fps (or faster) 1 1/4 oz loads being sold as "Premium" pheasant shells.

Anyone got a useful 1oz load for Cheddite hulls in 16ga?---Matt I have a good reload for 7/8 oz in a 16ga Cheddite hull (tested by Armbrust), but I don't reload 1 oz. I just buy them and reload 7/8 for targets after shooting them.

Id love to hear about a good 1 oz 16 ga load in a 2 1/2 cheddite hull too! Anyone know of a good medium or low pressure load?
Socialism is almost the worst.

Anyone got a useful 1oz load for Cheddite hulls in 16ga?---Matt Hey Matt, what kind of vel. pressure are you looking at? Best, Greg Hello Greg, Ideally, I'd like to mimic the RST 1oz load and get 1200 FPS at under 7000 PSI. I have a bunch of primed 16ga paper Cheddites that I'd like to load up. Been looking through at number of reloading guides and can't find what I want. Appreciate any input. ---Matt

Hey Matt, I have some for plastic hulls in 2 3/4" plastic. I'll see what I can find for 2 1/2" paper.
Best,
Greg

2 3/4" is fine too Greg. I plan to just cut and roll crimp them to fit in 2 1/2" chambers anyway. Thanks again! ---Matt

Got it. One last question, which powder do you use or plan to use? It will narrow down some loads.
Best,
Greg
