12 ga slugs

[2strokeforever]

The whole swap a slug into shot data didnt work very good for me and its pretty hard to find slug data so might as well share (I'm not your mom, you are responsible for yourself)

Fed top gun hulls
Fed 209a
39.5gr longshot 189 charge bar
1oz lyman.678 roung ball hard cast bhn 20+
Fed 12S0 wad or claybuster equivalent (fits reasonably tight in the barrel)
Lee load all star crimp
Seems reasonably accurate as far as I can tell with bead sights, they do bounce pretty good so make sure your backstop is steep....

I also have a green dot load that isnt as heavy

I will update this with velocities once I find my notes or chrono them again

An accurate 100 yard slug load (in a rifled barrel) for me has been the Lyman 525gr Sabot slug, 28 grains 800x, Federal Gold Medal hull, Fed primer, WAA12 wad, fold crimp. You are responsible for your own loads of course. Love the Lyman sabot slug. Anybody else have a favorite load?

I'm your momma.

32 grains of HS-6.

There are a few threads covering this already

I'am pissed they discontinued sr4756.works excellent with 12 ga Lyman slug and waa12. Tried other powders but not as accurate. Found a1lb can of sr 4756 last month, so l have about 115 loads before back to load testing again.

Hs-6 with 20 cards under the slug are or ball works nice, using mostly rem gun club hulls but the occasional win AA as well

Been testing out the following in a mossy 500 with a 24" rifled barrel.

Lyman 525 epoxy filled base
Windjammer wad
Gunclub hull
Winchester 209 primer
35gr longshot powder


Was promising at 35 yrds but then my scope went for a shït so i will have to get back to the range to test further. Seemed to really shoot well out of my buddies Nova though.

Use at your own risk of course YMMV
