I'd be quite intrested to see the Winchester wad you mentioned .

I'm thinking Craig cut the petals off the wad for a better visual of how the fiber wad and NC sit in it.

So I took this recipe out to my press. The Gualandi wads are that short and I didn’t remember that the shot cup was short. I didn’t have a 39A bushing but I have a #40 which drops 25g Clays. Still much less than the 30g I was dropping. I didn’t have any 10g fiber wads or NC. I used 12g instead and everything loaded very nicely.
