My first spreaders were made using deformed shot after seeing an ad from Orvis some 30 years ago for their spreader using flattened shot, made a device similar to a washing machine ringer [that dates me]. It deforms or flattens about 30 percent of the shot and opens the pattern one constriction. Used for grouse and woodcock early season but in Repro quail 1 it is to much and leaves to many holes in the pattern, only good in mod. or full.
