I am trying to decide on what lite 12 gauge shotshells to purchase. I've been shooting reloads of7/8 oz lead at under 1200 fcs and 7000psi.and would appreciate your thoughts on what manufactured loads are comparable. Thanks

I don't reload anymore, so I buy RST or Polywad low pressure shells for my old guns. Google either one for pricing and availability...Geo

Anyone got any idea what the peak pressure is for the Win AA Xtra Lights.
I use the AA Low Recoil, Low Noise, which are even lighter but would be interested to know what the Xtra Lights are. They are usually easier to find in Canada than the Low Recoils.

Caledonian in 3/4 oz or 7/8oz are great shells and they are priced right. The 3/4 oz loads are real light and break targets.

Holland and Holland had a lite load, same as the Winchester low noise low recoil, 26grams but used a fiber wad. Not sure if they could be used for Damascus, I know the Winchesters can.

I had the chance today to shoot some Herters 12 ga. 1 oz. at 1060 fps. at clays, and found them very comfortable. Thanks Clapper Zapper! Karl

Drew, thank you for that link!
Canvasback, how do you find those AA, low noise, low recoil shells do with the barrels on your guns?
My experience with the AA, low noise, low recoil shells were that they were the dirtiest burning shells I have ever shot and left my barrels a mess to clean. To their credit though they were low noise, low recoil.
