[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3317376, member: 15054"] I feel it does not matter much as the load with a bullet will have air space and this shot load will not. Load data on solid lead projectiles does not apply either as the lead pellets do not seal the bore like a solid lead slug. You may in fact find better accuracy with shot shells by reducing the load. But that is something you need to try. With fast pistol powders I am not worried about reducing loads. I am Speaking of powders like like Bullseye and Red Dot. I have ran 2gr loads of both in .308 and 30-06 and 32-20. I have not used Tightgroup but it is not far from Bullseye on the burn rate chart. [/QUOTE]
