Powder load for muzzle loading 10bore shotgun

[martin2sheds]

I’ve recently restored a muzzle loading 10bore shotgun. Unfortunately all my loading tables and experience is with muzzle loading 12 bores. Could anyone please give me advice on a starting load for pheasant using No6 shot, medium black powder and pre lubed wads.
Kind Regards

It is a William Bond with damascus barrels incidentally

Equal volume of powder to the volume of the weight of shot you want to use.

Best I can do as I am away from my own load data at present

This is a good site for M/L shotgun information.

Thank you, that is what I ran with the 12, it worked well. I shall give it a go.

Definately.
BTW Peter Dyson has a trade label for William Bond of Lombard St. London (if its the same one) if you are interested.
