16 Gauge and 410. Reloads.

[Clay Huntin' Canuck]

Does anyone reload the 16 gauge and the .410?
Looking to find out what is used with powders that are available nowadays.

Hodgdon had some listed for Longshot.(16 Gauge)

Probably using federal hulls or cheddite and cheddite primers., Do have some winchester's also . 1 once wads in 16 (not sure what ones I have, ill have to check.)

Don't have any .410 but have a flat of AA I might try to reload.

Looking for clay loads but any information would be a good starting point.

I load 410
I use 16 gr of H110 with pretty much any hull and the clay buster wad and 224gr of shot which is just over a half ounce

What kind of .410 press do you have? If it's a MEC 600 set it up for 3" hulls then use a short kit[booster seat] to load 2 1/2". I use Win 296/H110 and BPI .410 Stretch wads. Turns your .410 into a 30 yard gun. Win AA hulls are preferable. Another option is to use available hulls and roll crimp in a drill press or hand drill. Overshot cards can be made from wax milk cartons with a suitable punch.

Don't actually have any .410 set up just looking into options and what not.

I load a fair bit of 16 gauge, not as much as I used to , but still load for one shotgun.
7625, 4756, 800X, were all excellent powders for it and sometimes you can run into them , but they are harder t come by now.
Longshot is available these days and is also a good powder.

I load 14.5gr H110, clay buster wad and 1/2oz of 9 or reclaim for skeet. This is loaded in brass cases, no loading press required.

For 410 I load either Lil' Gun or H110

Do you have official super duper legit 410 brass, or blown out 303 British cases?

I have formed .303, .444 Marlin and Magtech .410. My preference is .444.

I have firmed .303, .444 Marlin and Magtech .410. My preference is .444.

Alright, was checking to see if it was good to go through peasant brass (303 cases) I'll have to giver a go.
