LOAD OF THE WEEK-3                

SPORTING CLAYS – FAR

SHOT: 1 OZ.  Lead #7.5

This load reaches WAY out there.  Suggest MOD or IMP/MOD choke.      

TIP:  CURMUDGEON prefers IMP/MOD.  And you should NEVER underrate a 12-gauge 1 oz. load for Sporting Clay loads.  But for the 1-1/8 oz. diehards, Use (Load: 60907-42) the same hull, same primer but use INTERNATIONAL 22.0 grains, the SSW(#072SSW)wad.  Result: 10,000 PSI 1290 FPS.
