First Reload Help - 10/13/23
Hey guys, new here and to reloading! I picked up a nice 16ga sizemaster recently with some components. Ive been doing alot of research/reading in the evenings on reloading. I think i found a load that id like to start with for just shooting clays. Obviously a variety of components are hard to come by at the moment, at least for myself. Right now i have fiocchi hulls high and low brass (according to my readings brass height doesnt matter, its the basewad that dictates the specific hull data. in this case, both have the same height basewad) Longshot powder, cheddite primers, im going to order some SG16 wads. i havent found any lead data with these exact components but i did find a couple similar. and i have read do NOT interchange components without data. so im here asking for some insight. i found the data for the load on here in the lead spreadsheet. everything is the same except it uses a fio616 or win209 which i can not get. so im wondering with the experience of other reloaders out there, if it is reasonable to sub for a cheddite primer with one of those loads? does cheddite burn similar to a win209 or fio616? i dont want to assume anything, so please offer some honest feedback, im a novice.
