TGT 12 Wads

About a month ago there was a thread about the TGT 12 wad being used in a handicap load. It had a STS hull,I'm not sure what primer, green dot powder and a TGT 12 wad with 1 1/8 oz load of 7 1/2 shot. I can't seem to find this load on the Alliant site. The person who used it swore by it. What was the load? I use TGT 12 for 1oz but I'm interested in this handicap load. He claimed that the 1 1/8 oz of shot fit perfect in the wad.

The TGT-12 (or better yet, the Downrange clone) fits perfect when loading an 1-1/8 ounce load using Hodgdon Titegroup powder.

Here is my cut and paste from the post you are refering to.

"To duplicate the Nitro 27 shell use the following recipe:
Remington hull
18.0 grains of Hodgdon's TiteGroup powder
Remington TGT-12 wad
1 1/8 oz of shot
Remington 209 primer.
I believe the pressure is 10,200psi and measured 1235 FPS through a Ohler chono out of a 30" barrel with an IM choke. My deviation was 10fps out of 10 shells. This same shell chono's the same out of a 34" barrel."

Hope this helps. --- Chip King ---

oleo',

That's a great singles load. Just as devistating is the same everything, but 1 oz of 8's. Softens up the shell a bit and picks up another 40fps. No matter how you look at it, TightGroup is awesome.
