Description
The Hodgdon Perfect Pattern is a fast-burning, flattened spherical smokeless shotshell powder developed specifically for light and extra-light field and target loads in the 12 gauge shotgun. As part of the long-trusted Hodgdon family of reloading propellants, Perfect Pattern is engineered to deliver clean, consistent ignition with notably low recoil, making it well suited to clay-shooting sports, upland bird hunting, and casual plinking where softer-shooting 12-gauge shells are preferred.
The flattened spherical granulation is built to meter uniformly through standard shotshell powder bushings, allowing reloaders to produce repeatable charge weights load after load. As a fast-burning propellant, Perfect Pattern pairs naturally with the lighter 1 oz-class shot payloads typical of 12-gauge target and field recipes, where it provides quick, even pressure development and clean combustion.
This listing is for a single 1 lb container of Hodgdon PP1 Perfect Pattern shotshell powder, a versatile addition to any 12-gauge reloading bench focused on light-recoiling field and target shells.
