Im wondering about wad pressure. Im using AA hulls orange claybuster wads and promo powder. Im loading 1 1/8 of #8 shot an using a 28 bushing witch gives me 1'145 fps. I am currently using between 45/50 pressure. just wondering if its to much.
shaner....
I realize there can be differences but I'm a little surprised to hear we have that much of a spread in our powder drops using the same bushing.
I'm using a digital scale. Not saying it's any better or worse than what you're using.
I drop 12 drops...weigh 'em all....throw out the high and low...and average the remaining 10. I came out to my 16.58 gr average.
Surprised you're getting 17.5 - 18 with the same bushing. "shrug"
Just may check mine again next loading session to confirm once again what I'm getting.
That was what I was thinking too. He did not say what powder he was using. My loader would be at least a 31 or 32 bushing with Promo to get that drop.
