I have a 8250 that I plant wheat with. I planted 100 lbs / acre. I set the gate at 20-22. Hope this helps.

Manual for a FLUTED drill shows 78 lbs at notch 20, 94 lbs at notch 24. Feed cups should be set at uppermost notch of the three- small seed, so the cup is closed down the most. DOUBLE RUN drill is set different.
