Pretty sure we aren't allowed to share data on here, but Ballistic Products or Lyman is a good starting point.

I'm not sure if we can share data but you got good advice. Look it up in a Lyman book. They'll give you all sorts of choices that are all safe. Don't ask some random poster what they think. You don't know if the load was tested

Ballistic Products Archives has a good recipe for heavy turkey load 3" using nickel-plated lead. I rolled #7s and they work great from "shoe top" out to 25 yards using a Trulock full or improved modified
