Do you know where I might find the appropriate powder charges for loads like this? I assume it's not a 1-for-1 ratio to Bullseye... Last thing I need is to reload and come back from the range with a slug stuck in the barrell, or with 3 fewer fingers.
Do you even have a loading manual?

The powders will not be identified as 'shotgun powders' in the loading tables, just by their manufacturer and name.

Blue dot, Red Dot and a number of other powders can be used in pistol loads or shotgun loads.

You can also look at the powder manufacturers site and see what loading data is available.

Take a list with you of powders you have loading data for and buy what you can get.

Powders suitable for shotguns may not provide the best performance in handguns, but many are very usable.
