DanielM1311 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hi was wondering if there are any experienced loaders out there that would advise/ explain to me the busing numbers with regards to grains of powder before I start loading. I'm aiming to load a 28gram #6 shot cartridge in 20 gauge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livefast123 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) I don't reload for shotgun but would imagine that the grains dispensed per bushing would depend on the powder you are looking to use as they all have different density and grain size. I would advise much reading and video watching on YouTube to get yourself familiar with the processes involved, it can be a dangerous game!

saddler Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Bushing numbers are also specific to the make of the machine you want to use. Most decent reloading manuals will have bushing charts in them that cover all the makes - plus you can also find the info online As has been said....GET A SET OF SCALES TOO as you WILL need them...
