I have been around here a long time and somewhere I have the load data that Jerry gathered for us.

BUT... I moved a couple of years ago. Shortly before the move I sent my 10ga to the 'smith for an overhaul. I should get it back soon and need to load for it but I have not unpacked the boxes that have the load data.

I have Federal hulls and SP-10 wads and need to fold crimp.

Can someone check the loads and post one that uses these two components?

Mike

I'm having trouble attaching the file so if you post your e-mail address I will send you the data that Sherman Bell and Tom Armbrust developed.

Initially just shoot some clays.
This gun killed a fair share of ducks in Utah with bismuth shot and blackpowder.

After that I don't know what I'll do. I now have some severe back problems so waterfowling is a different game than it used to be.

Cary,

Thanks for the kind words.

Anyone have this information? TwiceBarrel hasn't sent it to my email as of this moment.

Mike

Mike: Sherman Bell wrote an article in the Double Gun Journal about loads for "the other 10 ga's, 2 5/8" and 2 7/8". If you don't have it handy, I'll be glad to look it up for you. Think you can still run down a turkey?

Mike, if you don't get the information you need, e-mail me your address and I'll send you a copy of the data the "10 gauge group" put together.

Mike I re-sent the load data to the e-mail address you posted and asked for a delivery conformation and received this return message:

The original message was received at Tue, 27 Apr 2010 18:45:27 -0500

Your message was successfully relayed to mx4.hotmail.com. The message was addressed to:
<marksman60@hotmail.com>

Unfortunately, the remote mail system does not support confirmation of actual delivery. Unless the delivery fails, this will be the only delivery status notification sent.


Did you receive the data or are there gremlins in the system?
