Hi All
This could be the wrong place to ask but it can't hurt.
I want to put together a load for the Lee 7/8 slug for Target Shotgun and PSG.
Having tried a friend's load which worked fine in his gun, it was too tight in mine. It shot fine (semi-auto) but frequently didn't go fully into battery causing light strikes. We have the same gun so we think my chamber is just that bit tighter.
I'm thinking of using either once fired Lyalvale Power Blue cases that I've already got or new Cheddite or Fioccchi primed. All straight walled I believe.
Lee load data from the slug mould manual suggests:-
Given that I would prefer to avoid filler if possible can anyone suggest a suitable european hull/powder/wad combination?
I'm only looking for around 1300-1350fps initially but accuracy is going to matter.
I believe I need a thin walled wad to avoid any bulges in the case and the gun seems to like 70mm cases.
I know it's a lot to ask but any thoughts or ideas would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Rob
