I have come to prefer the fiber filler wads, 16ga sold by BPI. The nitro cards are designed to be over the powder cards and they are hard and unforgiving as filler wads. If you have the shot column at the exact right height they work great, but if it's just slightly tall it can cause a problem with buckled hulls. The fiber filler wads have some give to prevent this. In addition the 1/2 inch wads can be split to whatever size you need with a thumbnail. They do provide some confetti when the gun goes off LOL.
