The object here is to use something that’s simple as long as it works . And using the beans as a filler is simpler and quicker than fooling with card spacers .

I will be there to shoot my eight on the five stand. I shot 50 five stand birds with my lightweight DH eight at our club on Sunday with some 7/8 ounce 12 gauge loads out of chamber inserts. The 7/8 ounce loads seemed to catch the eight gauge chokes because I hit some long birds. I can't even catch up with my 12 gauge loading, so my eight gauge loads are a bit in the future. It will be nice when Morris gets the eight gauge project underway.
