Turns out I don't have a P-W 1/2 oz bushing. I did weigh the # 3 - 3/4 oz and # 2.5 5/8 oz throws

Using Eagle # 9 shot

3/4 oz bushing throws 352 grains of shot, little more than 3/4 oz, should be 327 grs

5/8 oz bushing throws 302 grains, again over, it should throw 270 grs

5/8 bushing drop hardly any visual difference from the 3/4 oz bushing drop and crimps almost the same with no adjustment

Loaded a box of the 5/8 will try them on the skeet field and couple of shots pattern board & let you know. Bet they work just fine.

P/s my powder charge is 15.7 Red Dot -weight checked
