i'll try a few things -
but the point is - unless all three scales are wrong- as well as the calibration weights - who would list this as a tested load - the 1 1/4 ounce load would easily fit into a 2 1/2 hull and might still need a little filler in that

A 16g or 20g fiber wad or "wooly" wad may work to fill up the bottom of the shot cup too. Seat it first then drop your shot. I do that in my 10g reloads. Works like a charm. I do understand your question though. Why would that load be published if it doesn't fill the hull? Maybe they forgot to add the filler wad to the recipe would be my guess? |

16 won't fit in the 12 wad - need to see if i have any 20's -
i have used bamboo shavings as fillings before- but have not planed down a rod for a while, i'll have to look behind the bench

Rick, Chedite makes a variety of base heights in their 16ga. hulls, and I suspect they also do in 12ga. hulls

Hey Rick,
I have some 0.135" thick card board wads I use in the bottom of my 3/4 ounce CB wads for my 1/2 ounce loads to bring them up higher so they crimp better. They are 0.625" diameter (20 gauge) and 0.135" thick. I have some 0.070" thick card boards wads too. I think I'll be seeing you around lunch time on Saturday and can a bunch of them with me. Bill |
