Hodgdon Universal Vs. International for 20 Gauge Skeet Loads.

[Guthrie]

Which one do you use and why? I've gotten lucky and come across some powder for a decent price. I know you can use both but which would be better?

 

[Double R]

I’ve used both, but I like Universal the best. As the name says, universal and shoots clean.

 

[Granite3]

Universal for the win!

Also great for 9mm/38/357.

 

[SKEETER25]

Agreed. Have loaded both, Universal wins

 

[Guthrie]

Sounds like it universal for the win. Does anybody have a 7/8 skeet load with a claybuster cb1078-20 (WAA20 clone) wad?

 

[Double R]

What case and primer are you using?

I reloaded about 300 20ga today using AA hulls, W209 primers, 20/28 powder, 15.7gr,, 1200fps,,,,,I'm using 20/28 because i reload 28ga also.

 

[LARGO9]

also the CB1078-20 wad

Im using the winchester game load and nobel sport 209 primers. They're euro primers but its the only thing i could find that made it worth trying to reload. The little bit of info ive found says you can put them anywhere you can put a winchester 209 primer.

The only 2 powders i have are the universal and international. I couldnt find any data for the 2 that used the claybustet wad. The CB1078-20 isnt interchangable with the WAA20F1 right?
