fenboy Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 If you are only going to load a few then I would not change anything , the steel powder does not drop well so really needs hand weighing So I would just had weigh shot and powder and use the to finish the shell.

Guest cookoff013 Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 Alliant steel isn't really a 20 gauge steel powder. Alliant do not recommend it for 20 steel. Check out lilgun instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they don't recommend it, but I have a few decent recipes for 20 gauge loads with Alliant steel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TONY R Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 As fenboy says its not worth trying to get steel conversion for it if you are only loading a few hundered just hand weigh everyhthing. A steel powder is not ideal but it works in 20 and is not as bulky as lil gun nor do you need anywhere near as much lil gun is a powder i save for just a few big loads. , lil gun works fine but use sp2 and vit these days more and more.
