<<All my buds have 12s, but that's their thing. I'm gonna load 7/8 oz. and see how it goes. I hate recoil. >> You whoose. I used to go 2 1/4 in my 10ga. As I remember 1 1/4 is a magnum in 2 3/4 20ga. Since you are loading, look into some slower burning powders and go for the 1 1/8 load. I used to load a 12, 2 3/4, half way to a magnum with 1 3/8 oz using Winchester 540 powder and got no real recoil and a really nice pattern. Loaded with #5s it was a pheasant killing sob even in a cylinder bore. If you have a problem burning the powder with the slower burners just crimp a little deeper. If they will let you, stand on the trap house or off to one side for crossing shots. Get a copy of Bob Bristers- "The Art and Science of Shotgunning". 30 years ago we had a ball on Sundays. Used an Outers flinger mounted on a tire and a hand tosser. 3 of us would take 15 boxes of reloads and a couple of cases of Blue Rock and blast away. Also a couple of belted magnums and always several 500 round bricks for the .22 pistoles. Hearing protection in the 60s? What? We don't need no stinking ear plugs. Was that what you were asking? I did get to where I could toss 5 by hand and usually smoke 'em all.

I have looked at some reloading books, Lyman.. that you need a gazillion componets to make a load and Winchester that has a nice book. I like the AA hull which will take 6 reloadings and have a load for you. Here's the obligitory stuff. Each reloading will be slower as the crimp will wear. Get a Mec screw down charge bar as the drop in cups are worth as much as a politicians word. Then measure the dropped charge. Shot and powder density changes the readings. Like I gotta tell you that. Whoakay. AA case, WW 209 primer, 24.5 grains of Winchester 571, Remington RP20 wad, 1 1/8 shot, LUP 10200. Velocity 1175, which is a little hot for trap that has a max of 1100 fps so you could drop the powder back a squidge. Should be smoother than a young girl's ass.
