20g reloading advice

[snarepeg]

Another way on obturaters is pick up fired wads, slice Of bottom cup and use under felt, time consuming but worth the effort, wash them after slicing of course. John

Presumably instead of the nitro card? So would you go with those at 5mm+14mm fibre wad?

 

I would still use a 16mm wad it will bed into the obturator when squeezed and compress in itself too, sometimes too much resulting in a dished crimp.

Good advice, thanks again.

I have Techna n powder in which is a great powder for 20g loads as well as the heavy 12g mags and small bore.

Drop me a pm if you want some more info

Tecna isn't supposed to be loaded for 25gr it's a powder for heavy loads and it's a waste to use on light load,, and dangerous!

 

Thanks,

there is tecna data available for 20bore with, 28, 30, 32, 35 gram loads, the latter are 3". i have seen decent data for 24g loads as well.

(decent data with both speed and pressure figures. ps dont forget the limit for 20bore is 800bar (standard proof ! not HP))
