Product Overview
Hodgdon LONGSHOT is a spherical powder made for the handloader who wants a versatile propellant for heavy field-load shotshells. It provides true magnum velocities with superb patterns, making it a focused choice when the load calls for performance backed by published data rather than guesswork.
Hodgdon’s Reloading Data Center includes LONGSHOT loads for 28-, 20-, 16-, and 12-gauge shotshells. That breadth gives shotshell reloaders a single powder option to consider across several gauges, always using the applicable published data for the component combination at hand.
LONGSHOT also has a place on the pistol loading bench. Hodgdon identifies it as the high-velocity pistol choice for .38 Super, .40 S&W, and .357 SIG at lower-than-usual operating pressures. For competitors shooting games such as Buddy and Annie Oakley, it is specifically called out as a strong choice.
Made in the USA, Hodgdon LONGSHOT is available in 1 lb., 4 lb., and 8 lb. containers. Consult Hodgdon’s Reloading Data Center for current published load data and follow the product label directions and warnings.
