I need to load some heavier soft none toxic loads for a euro combo to hunt coyotes in WMAs. The heaviest load in Ballistic Products manual in 2 3/4" is 1 1/8 oz anyone have any info for heavier loads. Right now I'm shooting 1 3/8 oz Bismuth factory loads but I'm almost out of them.

After the first shot the rest are just noise.

I would look at Nice Shot. Loading data is the same as for lead, with the caveat that it will generate very slightly more pressure than lead will, all things being equal. That also means you can use lead shot components. (I use AA hulls and wads) The downside is the expense- it ain't cheap. But, it's not like you're going to shoot trap with the stuff, right? (And no, I have no stake in the company that makes it.)
When I switched to Nice Shot for waterfowling I was using 1 1/4oz. Bismuth handloads. I found 1 1/8oz. Nice Shot to work as well, or better. It has a bit more mass than Bismuth, and was approved for waterfowling several years ago.
Note: they also sell loaded ammo for the non-reloaders among us.

ITX shot is lighter the bismuth...
You need to check pellet count on ITX
1 1/8 of ITX Shot is good load in a 2 3/4 hull..

ITX is a better choice when cost is a factor. I have ITX #4, It has the same weight per pellet as hard lead #5. You use leadshot wads with it and it is about 2/3 the cost of nice shot. Still to expensive but i load it for the 20ga. Fast 7/8oz loads for use when nontox is required. I have not killed much with it yet, but the quail seemed to die when i hit them. The area i hunt with them has a mixed bag, Pheasants, chukar, quail, ducks. So far i have only killed quail. It patterns very tight, so lighter loads will work very well. Have you looked in ballistic products load of the week?
