2 1/2 12 Ga loads?
« on: February 22, 2019, 02:37:09 PM »
Does anyone have any load data for 2 1/2 12ga? A friend has two old SXS that  have 2. 1/2 chambers, he wants to load some hunting loads that are under 1200fps.I think that @AWS does this type of loading. Thanks

BPI(Ballistic Products) "Advantages" shot shell manual has 2 1/2" reloading data, their website has archived load data available.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

I just remembered Polywad out of Geogia sells them in plastic hulls so you could reload them.There's a 4 box minimum so be about $50.
