If so what is the recipe and results?
I like the concept since much of the shot is contained in the plastic wad cup and should result in greatly reduced leading. Thank Craig
Craig, I haven’t tested that load yet. The shells in the photo were just an example of big 8 reloads. That load will be tested but with the 8g NC beneath the 8g 1/2” fiber wad. You will get more shot inside of the wad petals that way as you said. 👍🏻
