    My older Lyman 4th edition lists WSF but Fiocchi hull data is very limited. I see it used in 12ga 1-1/8oz heavy target and field loads and 1-1/4oz field loads in most brands of cases.

    Fiocch plastic w/ low plastic base wad (is this what you have?) 2-3/4"

    W209 primer 30gr WSF WAA12 wad 1-1/8oz 1305fps 6900psi
    W209 primer 32gr WSF WAA12F114 wad 1-1/4oz 1302fps 9700psi
    W209 primer 29gr WSF SP12 wad 1-3/8oz 1255fps 10,200psi

    There is no buckshot data in Fioccchi hulls and slug data is limited to the 525gr Lyman Sabot slug.

    Fiocchi plastic case with HIGH plastic basewad

    W209 primer 31gr WSF WAA12F114 wad 525gr Lyman sabot slug 1383fps 10,000psi

    thats all I have
