Managed to get out and shoot a few clays today and have to report that the load used was spot on no signs of pressure.
I went with the load in my previous post and it smoked the clays with 1/2 & 1/2 choke.
Just need to source a few more once fired hulls........
Just an update in case it’s useful for future readers. Have spoken to John at Folkestone Engineering and he recommends reducing the powder by 10% and working up from there checking for high pressure.
He was confident that the 21grm fibre loads on the website would be fine in the new style Winchester cases But better safe than sorry.
I will post my findings once I can get back to pulling the trigger 😄
Maybe I need to elaborate more, I am using Folkestone Engineerings load data as a guide which is this
70mm Fiocchi CaseFiocchi 615 primer 1.20gm PSB+2SP 4mm over powder card. 14mm Fibre wad 21gm #6.5 (2.5mm) or #7 lead shot 6 Point Star Closure O/L=60.9mm
I’m currently using this
70mm Hull Case—usedFiocchi 615 primer 1.20gm PSB+2SP 2mm over powder card. 12mm Fibre wad 6mm cork wads21gm #7.5 lead shot 6 Point Star Closure O/L=60.9mm
So I’m happy with the load I am currently using but my question is, is it safe to use Winchester AA used cases Instead of the Hull cases I am using?
I have read that the internals of the AA cases are different but has anyone had any experience of this and is there anything I need to be aware of before I proceed?
Cheers
