(quote)"Can anyone tell me the correct load/construction for the starting charge??" NO, not with the little info that you have given. If you have reloading equipment then you should have gotten a "Reloader's Bible" or reloading manual that tells the specifics of each load! Hull manufacturer, shot size, primer selection, wad manufacturer and style, target and shooting requirements, all these plus more specs factor into the equation! .....and if you don't already know this.... why are you reloading this guys shells? I don't mean to be a smart-aleck here, but experimenting and random loading is not an option! If you have already loaded shells before and know the variables that apply, then have the gun "proofed tested" by a competent gunsmith and then start with as light a charge as the reloaders manual suggests, for the hulls and wad that you plan on using! Good luck and be extra careful! I have a 12G shotgun setting in the corner that has a golfball sized hole in the side of the barrel where a guy made a mistake and a piece of the barrel took the end of his thumb off (he's very lucky it didn't kill him or someone else)! I use it to show kids what happens when you do not pay attention to details!
