I have a large quantity of once fired Kent Velocity Steel hulls for which I cannot seem to find reloading data. The Kent website states that they use Cheddite hulls, and the ones I have match the diagrams in the Lyman 5th ed manual. However, Lyman won't go out on a limb to suggest using their Cheddite data with these hulls. They told me they have no data for them.
Does anyone have a source of reloading data for either steel shot, lead shot, or both for these hulls? I've got several hundred that I'd like to use if possible.
Thanks.

They are Cheddites (come in gray & red). Pretty much the same as Fiocchi's, too. As long as they're not max loads, I'll use Fiocchi or Cheddite data as you'll see there's little differance. Federal Goldmedal, W-W,& Remington SP w/ a separate basewad (Riefenhauser-type) are in the same category. Steel loads are available from Ballistic Products(good source for wads espec for steel shot) and Alliant for Steel powder( These loads tend to be max so don't change any components).

MarknMaggie--
Thanks for the info. I think I will try out some loads based on the Cheddite hull data and see what happens. Always an adventure with shotshell reloading...
I've used the steel data and components from Ballistic Products and I agree with you that they work great.
Thanks again.
