Using Winchester wads, probably 11/4oz, really can’t remember the powder.
We had the Lee Load all press. Seem to remember the hot loads we came up with…dangerous mix of dumb youth, a little knowledge & the fun launching said possums. Dad had a double barrel Steven’s 311A I swear that thing was forged from railway iron, it was heavy

Edit: the crimp was forced down onto the slug to hold in place, had few laughs when the slug rolled out the end of the barrel
