Not very full. Recoil felt right, it was lighter than a field load but not by much. I went a few grains higher but it blew a donut in the pattern.

I have found a better load for the brass 16 gauge shells. 20 grains of Trail Boss (DO NOT COMPRESS THIS POWDER, just gently seat the wads on top of the powder). 23 blows the pattern into a donut. ...
I'm positive the 16 gauge can handle more than the 14.5 grain load of Alliant Promo that I'm loading. It is such a mild load. But, I'm afraid to play with it much more because I don't have a...
Dad and I worked up a load for brass .410 shotshells the other day. Considering that I have found absolutely no load data for brass shotshells. As always, if you decide to do this, be safe and...
Considering that I have found absolutely no load data for brass shotshells, I wanted to share with you guys what I found regarding brass shotshells in the 16 gauge. As always, if you decide to do...
Well, looks like we're nearly neighbors. I'm from Kentucky. ;) Our squirrel season is open as well. I've been trying to test out my new .410 handloads on a squirrel but I haven't the chance yet. ...

They sell a priming compound that is perfectly safe to ship (without HAZMAT) until it is mixed on site. ...
Well, there is a load for 2400 that I listed above. Again, I haven't used that load. Try it at your own risk.
The reason I don't use published loads in plastic shells? Everyone told me...

I guess I'm the only one worried about the cat.
No I haven't used any other powders. I have seen load data for others which I will post at the bottom. Be very careful and work up loads. I have no clue if this data is actually safe. It's not...
Glad I could be of some help. Again, please work up your load - don't start with 7 grains of Universal Clays right off the bat. I would start at 4 and work up. I shot this in a 16 gauge with an...
I lurk here quite a bit but I registered just to drop some information here to help you out.
