mills do you have tom armbrust book 4 and 8 gauge...there is lots of reloading stuff in there...heres a untested load but will not kick very much..you will have to play with the wads to get your crimping or your roll crimping looking good..use pete lesters post sugur crisp as a filler...he says dont eat them up...ha use alliant blue dot powder..winchester 209 primers....buy the italion plastic wads from precision reloading ..or 1/2 inch wds.. 1 1/2 ounce of lead shot...would use the fold crimp if it were me....this will be a very tame load in the 8 ga...below a 1 1/2 of shot you do not get good ignition in the 8 ga...use 35 grains of bluedot....charlie

Seriously, avoid cereal fillers that are sugar coated, it will make you hands sticky. My preferred cereal filler wad is Cheerios. Oddly enough a cheerio takes up about the same room as 1/8 ounce of lead #6.
