7625 is a good shotgun and pistol powder.
4756 is a really good 20ga and magnum 12 ga powder., also popular for hand gun loads too.
4759 was the old go to cast bullet reduced load powder, kind of like Trail Boss is nowadays.

Catnthehat is the guru of all things CIL, so ask him about the primers.

All those powers are useless gor shotguns - especially 20 a d 28 gauges .Send them to me and I will properly dispose of them for !
Seriously though , great powders for the 16, 20 and 28's .

I think the the 1 1/2's are minus the battery cup, no?
Can you check for me please?

racking my brain here, the 1 1/2 primers are pistol/BP primers IIRC.
We have used them in shotguns as well, but they did not have a battery cup.

Ah, that is why we were using them in heavy shotgun loads, I remember my father had a special decapper on one of our presses to knock put the primer only and the cup stayed in .
