16 Guage Shot Gun

[cpt dan blodgett]

Anyone here loading 1 OZ or 7/8 OZ 16 Gauge using WAA16 or CB 0100-16?  If so what powders are you using?  My on hand powders are Nitro 100 Red Dot AA2 and Tightwad which I believe are too fast for 16 guage and a single pound of Unique.  The Unique should load 300-350 shells.  Are there any other powders I should look at trying to obtain or just try to find more Unique?

I inherited, sort of, a lifetime supply of HERCO. It is very useful in the 16ga, in some heavier 12 Ga loads, as well as in pistols and mid-range loads. Very close to a one powder does all job. For lighter loads I relied on Green Dot, for the same reasons. Unique sits in the middle ground between them.
