    12g slug loading

    I need to get back into this to make up loads for competitive target shooting.
    I have used Vectan AS and A1 and A0 in the past with the Lee and Lyman "shuttlecock" slugs.
    Never found either to be that accurate.
    I have now got a Svarog mould that uses screw on base wads.
    As I will be using these at Bisley discarding wads are no longer allowed.
    The Lee and Lyman are undersized for the bore without being contained in a shot cup.
    The Svarog slug is fatter.
    I am using new cases and roll crimping.
    I need loads to get out to around 90 yards.
    AS is all gone but I do have maxam CSB5 and also A1 and A0 available.
    Any one have any pet loads using these powders and slug?

    Have a look at this thread from cast boolits forum it is mostly about the Svarog slug loading.

    Thanks for that.
    Haven't been on castboolits for years.
    Problem is all data from US sources for 12g slug is designed for knocking large animals over!
