Ok, Got it, thanks. So, is it a significant advantage, as far as effects on wood, to use the lower psi load? Or, is it insignificant? One oz. seems to be a suitable standard for shot amount, especially for shooting trap at the longer distances. Would the higher psi load be more effective for that purpose, with it's higher FPS? Given that both loads are at or below the 8,000 PSI pressures of the black powder loads that the guns were designed for? I get a little "Anal" about this stuff, especially when I show up at the range and someone sees my guns and begins preaching "Anti Damascus" mythology to me. I like to have very specific information for my response.


I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
