Anyone have any experience using these loads? Specifically in SBE 2 & beretta/benelli-Mobil thread guns?

Lots of people used to shoot them in 20s. They were the gold standard for commercial loads before TSS.

I assume you’re asking about 12 gauge since you asked about the SBE II. What shell/load do you have?

Yes 12 gauge. I've tested 3.5" #7s w/ Final strut .650 & .655 with 120s in the 10. Really just lookin for another starting point. I have quite a large supply of the 3" 1 5/8oz. #7s and some 3.5" as well. I plan on testing 3.5" & 3" out of SBE 2 and 3" out of a gun with Mobil threads
