    I would not use 7625 powder for reloading a 12 gauge shotgun shell. I would especially not use 7625 to reload a 12 gauge shotgun shell if I was reloading on a MEC 650 or a MEC progressive type of reloading press. If I lived in an area that was prone to static electricity, like Denver, I would not use 7625. I could go in to much greater detail but please just trust me, there are powders that are much easier to use than 7625 and you do not have to use sheets of clothes softener. HODGDON CLAYS works well for me for 12 gauge reloads in my L C Smith hammer gun and Parkers built on a number 2 frame. See you all at The Southern SXS. Jent
