has anyone heard or them? I can not find it in the manuals I am using.
I would like to see if there is any data to use them.
I have about 100 hulls. probaby just gonna use them for trap rounds.

It's a green hull, 8 point crimp, low brass, REMINGTON PETERS 12 GA headstamp.

I have WAA12 wads and W209 primers Unique and RedDot powders
wad/powder/shot combo?

If these semi new hulls

I bet if you compare them to Rem STS or Gun club hulls
They will be the same expect for color

If older than 8 years old
I would cut one in1/2 and compare to known hulls

You talking about hulls like these

http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/MVC-045S1.JPG

The Remingtons were green and the Peters were blue, like the old Blue Magic or RXP hulls

If so, load them like the old AA Winchester hulls

I load mine with 17.8 grains of Red Dot, Claybuster Wad, 7/8 ounce of shot.

If you are using the Win AA White wad, try 18.0 to 18.5 Grains of Red Dot, and 1 1/8 ounce of shot,
As listed in Lyman Shotshell Handbook, 3rd Edition

Please report back on how they work for you

skeettx those are exactly it.
Light 9 though. (9 shot I guess)
Cool thanks. I've been checking a few forums and I did email Alliant (should hear back)
I have few blue hulls (Marked Peters) , Mostly green Remington hulls though.

Let me know if you need a specific load and I will look it up in my books
As I get older I have moved from hard kicking 1 1/8 ounce loads downward

I've loaded plenty of those. They make a good hull for HS-6 and 1-1/4oz. for a pheasant load as well as being great for the lighter loads down to 7/8oz. even.
