Does anyone have any experience / data for loading this with Load-All?

I have access to some factory ammo, but it is only #7. I use this gun for hun's and pheasants but the #7 are a little light for pheasant. I would like to load up some #5. The cases are Kent.

Any information would be appreciated.

Geez. I'm not seeing any load data for a 16 ga. 2 1/2" on-line. Maybe the guys on the shotgun forum would be of more use to you.
 
The 16 ga. reloaders group at 16ga.com should be able to help. you join the group for something like $20 and you have access to all kinds of good data. You can't load 2.5" on the Lee load all, part of the reason why I sold mine.
 
not quite true

You can adapt the loadall to crimp shorter shells by handmaking spacers for the retaining bar and stacking some washers glued together. Did this for 2 5/8" for my Model 12. Or, roll-crimp all your shells, as I do now. Then you don't need the loadall after adding the shot.
