| Does anyone have any recipes for loading new cheddite primed 2 1/2" shells with bismuth shot? I plan on hunting ducks with these shells in my old Browning that is chambered for 2 9/16" shells. |

| I got from BPI their 16 gauge reloading brochure. It includes a number of 2.5" loads for lead and bismuth. |

| chitown jim when you get your data from the 16 gauge reloaders group if you do not find a bismuth load that you like you can sub bismuth for lead on a weight for weight basis. If you substitute bismuth for lead on a volume basis your shot charge will be a bit light. |
