goldfish Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hi all, For shotshell using Green Dot, has anyone tried using a different primer other than Win 209 or Rem 209P which the Lyman manual list for a 1-1/8oz target load for 12GA. Is it safe to substitute primers? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) I have used the Cheddite primers with the Win recipes. You can always call or email the powder mfg with the combination of components ( hull, powder, wad, primer ) and they will give you the answer. Oh - and the online reloaders guide from Alliant has lots of loads for GD already listed. Have you looked there ?

kamikaze1a Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I have with no ill effects but I am not loading anywhere near max and not using tubes. If you running tubes, pressure a bigger factor. Fed 209A is supposed to be hotter iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
