you can probably find some youtube vids, capandball has been hunting with a shotgun lately...
I had a pedersoli SxS 25+ years ago, I sold it to fund other things, and on the rare occasions every decade or so when I get interested in shotgunning I wish I still had it. So I started searching again... sold out everywhere.... I'll wait till the next container from Italy comes in.
3 drams of FFg or Fg, an over-powder wad, a cushion wad, 1 oz of shot, an over-shot wad, prime... bird - butt - body - beak - bang.
the cushion wad is about 1/2" thick, the others are like simple cardboard.
make sure the charge is tamped down with no air gaps.

if you look at a box of modern shells, it might say "3 dram eq", that is the smokeless equivalent of 3 drams of black powder or something like that. a dram is 27 gr, so that's about 80 gr.
CHECK THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR RECOMMENDED OR MAX CHARGE!!!!
shoot good
