Paul, you can get paper wads from
www.circlefly.com - just tell Craig what you're loading and he'll be glad to help. I get the 1/2" thick cushion wads - they're easy to split in case you need to make up a different thickness, like 3/4". That and a .125 over powder wad, and a .028 over shot card. Your wad is for a 1oz load, but I didn't see in BP's description if it was for a straight walled hull. Is that hull you bought straight walled ? When I use plastic wads I like to use a shorter wad in the 2 1/2" shell. I use Claybuster wads [ which are way cheaper than BP's wads ] and use the CB-3118-12AR , which is a 1 1/8oz wad and load 7/8oz of shot in it. Because of it's lower cushion area, it loads very nice. About the winter shoot. If I thought there would be enough interest I'd have one. Have to wait and see.
