Weight.

Well this doesn't sound that difficult .

I can still use SR7625 , I can still use SP-10 wads . I can weigh each charge of whatever size Bismuth or ITX-10 I use as I won't need over say 15-20 loaded rounds each time we go afield (I hope) .

And the added pellets to get up to 1 1/4 ounces may very well do away with the spacers cards I now put in the bottom of the shot cups of my lead 1 1/4 ounce loads .

Do you guys put buffer in your Bismuth/Nice/ITX-10 loads ?

I used Grex in my 10 and 12 gauge buckshot loads this year so putting it in these shouldn't be that big a deal either .
