Pancake shot?
Met a young (well, 45 is young to many of us) man who claimed to be an Army retiree who spent the first 5 years of his service as part of the Army shotgun team. He sure did seem to know his way around a M42 today.
I was commenting to him about my Fox with .044 choke in each barrel which makes it a bit dicey for skeet. He said "You should try my pancake shot". What he described was putting shot thru a pair of rollers similar to an old washing machine, and flattening the shot into pancakes. He claimed it was the ultimate in spreader loads. He apperantly has a jeweler friend who has a roller setup for making gold or silver sheets who lets him run his shot thru. Has anyone else heard of this? He claims "the shot flies like throwing a shingle".
