Floating Chamber Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Red Dot.....? Nooooooooooooooo!!!!! You need a slow powder. I am looking at a proof report for a 16gram 3" I tried last month with CSB0 and that is as slow as a boring Maths lesson!!!! The report showed 950 bar!

Floating Chamber Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) i forgot to say i will be using cheddite primers i see thanks for the reply, do you or can any one recommend suitable powder please 2" A0 2.5" 2400, H110, BA5, Tecna, SP3, Win 296. 3" SP3, BA5, CSB0*, Win 296. * be careful; even a 'well-known' recipe can be mis-typed!!!! e.g. take a look at at the Siarm .410 load of 36 grams!!! See below: http://www.siarm.it/product_info.php?cPath=96_105_114&products_id=471&osCsid=8d594f109d711e41b127f1c0128931be **Also, the low power primers such as 684, CX50 and F614 are best used. The Cheddite CX50 will FALL OUT of some of the brands of case; e.g.the shells originally loaded with F614 and M684 because the CX50 is much SLIMMER. Mike them up and see.

Guest cookoff013 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 red dot? you couldnt find any recipes because redot is not a .410 powder. it shouldnt even be used in a 20gauge, let alone a .410. Go to hodgdon, alliant, or any powder manufacturer, and look for .410 recipes. then buy powder / components, reload, shoot, repeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
