Rich the easiest to load (in my opinion) are the Remington RXP..and they usually show a little lower pressures. For heavier field loads Hodgdon Longshot powder seems to be a good one. The real expense will come in the price of good shot. Magnum only or plated if it can be found..For them big ol Skwerls in the trees 6 shot is the smallest and 5s are much better. Skwerls are really tough critters...not joking. When i was a kid shootin a Win 37 410..5's are all I used for skwerls or rabbits. Shot my first goose with 3 inch 5s in the 410. I was rabbit huntin at the time and that ol goose flew right over me at about 30 yds. Bang/flopped him(think it was a LOT of luck involved). I'm gonna be travelin for a bit..but send your addy to me by either email or PM. I'll see what I might have around that you can use. I gotta go back to Md/Del. But I ain't gonna be gone too long. Should have added the RXP is for 7/8 ounce only. for 1 ounce the yellow Win 20 ga field wad
