For the sake of simplicity I settled on using the pink Winchester 1 oz wad (CB1100-12/WAA12L) and Red Dot/Promo (Mec 28 bushing) for 7/8 ounce loads. They crimp nice and perform superbly in all clay target disciplines. If you haven't shot 7/8 ounce 12ga loads as the old commercial used to go; Try 'em, you will like 'em.
If I want to shoot 1 ounce loads I use the same wad and powder (different bushing) in Remington STS hulls.
If I want to shoot 1 1/8 ounce loads I use the same wad and powder (different bushing) in Federal hulls.
How 7/8 ounce loads crimps look with 1 ounce CB1100-12 and Red Dot/Promo below.
