[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3286500, member: 5412"] I have a RCBS Grand Shotshell progressive reloader. The best velocity I've got from factory recommended reloads that stays in safe pressures is 1500 fps. Haven't tried to go above that because the recoil is brutal in the 6.7 lb Citori. Borrowed one of the magnetospeed chronographs to get that total. Back when Pheasant hunting every weekend, the late season birds flushed in front of the dogs out of range of most factory loads, so like you said, the HV loads of large shot with tight chokes were the ticket. Wondering what factory ammo is going to produce 1,520? I'd buy some. I know the europeans shoot different stuff than we do. My european 16 ga shells are 2 1/2" vs 2 3/4" in the US. [/QUOTE]
