I had the chance to shoot some of the loads I made up in paper hulls with 2.5 drams and 1oz of 6 shot. They went off well and I was surprised at how light the recoil was as compared to low pressure smokeless loads.
I was loading all by hand using an old shot/powder dipper and a wood press to pack the wads. I used a drill press mounted roll crimped since it yielded a much better crimp than the hand crank tool.
