Default 12 guage lee load all

I have a Lee Load All for a 12 guage shot gun
I didnt get it with the manuals but it does have all the differnt measuring items for auto measuring

well any how I am curious for some advice here

I am wanting a to make a good turkey load for my remington 870 12 guage

I am not so worried about loading my own slugs at this point

but I would like some load recomendations types of wads to use so on and so on

thanks guys

Pick up a Hodgdons reloading manual. It has everything that you want to know in it.

I plan on getting manuals but its nice to also get some other peoples loads that have worked out for them

hence why I mentioned what gun I was shooting from.

I will pick the manual up though for reference.

I like the Lyman manual myself . The newest edition includes steel and bismuth loads . My old standby for the old days (pre-86) of ducking is

THESE ARE MAXIMUM LOADS WORK UP CAREFULLY !!

Rem rxp wad
Rem low base plasticcase
Fed 209
29.0 unique
1 1/8 oz 4s or 5s
OR
27.0 Unique
1 1/4 2s

We shot these in full choke Win. Mod 12s .Do use with caution these are maximum loads and were safe 20 years ago in our guns .

The above loads patterned better than 100% at 40 yards and regularly took geese at over 60 yards .25 yrd patts were normally less than 12 inches .
