I can't seem to find any data for use with the TGT12S wad, which is what Remington uses in the Nitro 27 1 1/8 Hcp load. Hodgdon lists data with the figure 8 wad only. They have a max load of 18.5 grs. of TightGroup, (which is what I believe to be the consumer available substitute for the factory powder). I loaded up a few rounds in some Nitro 27 hulls, with a Rem 209P, the TGT12S wad and 18.3 grs. of TightGroup and they crimp just fine. I supose I could use the Figure 8, but the original uses the TGT12S. I noticed the Factory shells do compress the wad a bit and so do mine. Any thoughts? TIA
