I bought a lee slug mold about a week ago. I poured some slugs and loaded them according to the load sheet that came with the mold. I must say I am very happy with the outcome save one thing. Man this think kicks like a mule. No, it's worse than a mule. I am using max load. Can't remember right now if it's 38gr or 36gr loads. All the components are to spec.
They shoot great out of my Deerslayerll. No problem there. Now my Mossberg 500 is brutal. If I back the powder off 10% is that goin to make much difference in kick? I have no instruments to get accurate measurements but there seems to be a ton of power.

Oh I forgot I am using Accurate #5 powder

I am very pleased with the Lee mold just want to get the recoil down a bit.

thanks for the help
