CZ720, and Lee Loadall on order.
Most of my shotgunning is spring turkey hunting using my neighbors borrowed Mossberg 500.
Figured if i had a shotgun of my own, i might spend more time small game hunting also.
Looking at Alliant's data, they only showed 2,3/4" shells. No 3".
Also, they give a powder/bushing combo for the Lee loader, but with none of the newer powders.

Any data for shotguns out there?
And no, i'm not adverse at all with using Hodgdon powders.

Thanks!
 
As cheap as factory bird shotshells are, I'd just buy them over the counter. If you're wanting to load turkey shells, you don't need a loader. You just need a drill press for the roll crimp.
 
Well, looking around my area, i can get all the 20ga ammo i want. As long as it's Rem or Win 2,3/4" number 7.5 shot.
Pricing 3" shells for turkey from MidwayUSA runs $10-30 for box of 5 or 10 rounds.

Reloading becomes a no brainer.
