My normal goose whacker is 37 gr Steel powder in a Fiocchi 3 1/2 hull,616 primer,Multi metal wad,1 1/2 oz steel shot ( 300 gr #1 or #2 and 356 gr #BB or #BBB) and a 6 point fold crimp.This is Death out to 50 yards+ with my 870 and factory full choke.
For this load I dropped to 36 gr steel powder and used #2X#BBB and rolled the crimp over a .060 clear plastic over shot card and used a bead of glue to keep it nice and dry.
The listed speed for the fold crimp and 37 gr steel is around 1500 fps
With the roll and glue I would think it would be about the same with 36 gr of steel. I haven't put it on paper yet but they Do look cool...
