You just need something for RST hulls - it wouldn't matter if they're 2 or 3" hulls. What wad can be used in RST's ? Would BP's have something ? Paul

Paul, Gualandi Wads..... Outfits such as Precision Reloading use their own numbers in the catalog but they can be cross referenced.

Does anyone know if the 12 ga. 2 1/2 inch Polywad Vintager uses a cheddite hull? and would the above work for used vintager hulls?

Apparently, the Cheddite hull is used by many outfits. The headstamp with four stars and four digits designating the gauge is found on RSTs, Polywads and Gamebore to name a few.

Im having a problem locating the GU-1222 wads. Grafs doesn't list a 1oz Gulandi wad online ( at least I cant find them) would there be another 1 oz wad that could be substituted?
