. And one thing ive found breaking in a new shooter is to make them wear muffs.. Be surprised how much finch develops when they know that big crack is coming. Subsonics will still be loud but better than fullhouse loads

Where do you get data for such slow ones out of curiosity?
I looked at ADI powder for 110gr pills and slowest they list is Bench Mark 8208 starting load which is still 2975 fps. Tonnes above sub-sonic.
I know ADI isn't the only option. Who does the them that much slower? And you'd need something to fill heaps of case capacity right?
Is trail boss the only one?

That's always worse for me, all the rifles I've shot with aftermarket pads seem to add too much length for me and I'm stretching my neck forward to get the right eye/scope distance.

I'm the same mate. Im a short bastard with a rotund gut. lol . Thats one reason I got the Ruger Scout. I could shorten it right down, but If my mate borrows it, him being lanky can add the spacers

Shotgun powders can be used between about 1200fps to 1600fps using a 180gr cast bullets. Just check out the ADI manual. Or email them.
