Load recipe to open shot pattern

[William Davis]

My regular 12 G SxS Clays load AA Hull 7/8 oz 7 1/2 Claybuster CB 178-12 Wad 16.4 Red Dot

12 G Spreader SxS load RGL Hull 7/8 oz 7 1/2 Claybuster CB 1100-12 Wad 15.7 Red Dot.

Lot of discussion on spreaders increasing pressure, over regular loads. I am pretty sure they do given you are adding something to the shot column, some internet posters think so too. I drop one powder bushing from my regular load when using the spreader insert.

If I was loading them just for skeet would probably go to 1oz # 8 or 9 Sporting clays almost always use Spreaders on Rabbits and like the 7 1/2 shot.
