shakin stevens Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 I've got around 3k of bb itm shot I used for an old 8 bore , I've now sold the gun. Anybody got any decent recipes for loading in a 10b ? I was never keen on clay and game data , found it way over the top using 63 gram of expensive itm in a 10b , 8 b data wasn't to bad .

Guest cookoff013 Posted August 20, 2018 Report Share Posted August 20, 2018 What's the density of this stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted August 20, 2018 Report Share Posted August 20, 2018 Density of 10.25. That's about par for the course in 10bore, 2oz and a quarter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakin stevens Posted August 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2018 Only shoot 1 oz 7/8 of PowerShot in the 10b and that never fails on target , can't see the point of heavy payloads of over priced itm or any other non toxic shot.

Guest cookoff013 Posted August 20, 2018 Report Share Posted August 20, 2018 It's the same density as lead really. Just look for data around the optimal range, and you should have no probes developing a load. In 12s 36g is about right. Haven't a clue about 10s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually only go to 1 7/8oz of shot in the 10. I don't want to "waste" shot needlessly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
