As mentioned elsewhere, I'm looking at reloading shotgun shells, and I've been evaluating powders.
Many powders are still unavailable in the great powder dry spell, so I started to consider options further afield from the usual, and it seems I can get a large, affordable quantity of Hodgdon 777 - well, ok, not cheap, but affordable. Kind of.
Black powder shouldn't be a huge pressure deal for most firearms, and the same goes for black powder substitutes, but shotgun loads with black powder seem to be thin on the ground.
Anyone know any good resources?
Edit: I did call Hodgdon, but they only had one idea (1.125 oz shot, 70 grains by volume as I recall) so there wasn't a lot of scope given. I'm guessing there aren't that many CAS shooters reloading for 12 gauge.
