B525 LIGHT Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Just wondering how many others use 10GaOakies 70mm 32 gram HG load from the US forums? It beats every other recipe I’ve ever loaded for eveness of pattern and can acheive 90% + patterns at 40 yards, however I’ve never seen any mention of it on a UK forum. It’s easy to load and has very mild pressure yet excellent performance. So much so it’s all I now use in the 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B525 LIGHT Posted December 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 I wouldn’t call 1480 to 1500 fps for a 32 gram load in a 2 3/4” case relatively slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So which " Variant " of the HG load are you loading I ask as I've seen various loads. One being Alliant Steel 34 grains a 3" LBC wad cut down for a 70mm case and 32grams of Steel 2's the reason given that a 3" wad is stiffer than a LBC 70 mm wad so using a cut down 3"wad gives Better patterns. !!!!!!

figgy Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Could be a good duck load for me to load for next season. Proven and liked by plenty. Cant see what’s special about it though and what exactly is the recipe as some are using chedite primers others W209 wads vary to bp37 to cut down lbc47. So let’s have your recipe you like. Shame we don’t have a pinned section for reloading recipes that are tried and trusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenergp Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Here is more info on the HG load , i use the lbc43 and the b&p32 wad loads, i have only shot a few of the cartridges but they seem ok https://pipesf16.wordpress.com/chronopattern-testing-10gaokie-hg-load-5-flavors/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B525 LIGHT Posted January 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 I prefer the original. Cheddite case and primer, 3* grains of Asteel, b&ps32. 32grams of shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiler23 Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 All the data I have for steel powder uses fed209 primers.. I like the idea of a pinned section fort Tried and tested data too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
