Trying to keep velocities under 1200 fps for informal recreational clay target shooting by people with physical problems.

Shells will be shot in a relatively lightweight single-barrel trap gun.

So it is not necessary for the recoil or pressure to operate a semiautomatic shotgun action or a second shot with an inertia trigger.

I have the wads designed specifically for the 3/4 ounce load.

I've ran a chit load of 7/8 oz. loads in 12 gauges for the first shot on doubles or singles practice. My powder of choice was and has always been Hodgdens Clays. I started my son out shooting trap when he was 10 years old with said loads running in the mid 1,100 fps and then working up to around 1,250 fps. Good luck with your venture and kudus to you getting people interested in the sport!!!
