I have been told the waxed fiber 16 g wads don’t spray as much fiber as the plain. 10 g wad recipe most of us use, SP 10 half 16 G fiber In the shot cup, works good I would not change it. One reason they pattern so well is the fiber comes apart on firing. Add something hard may change results.

Could be your friends should avoid outdoor sports.

IMHO- since the fiber wad should be in the bottom of the load- its not like the old overcards causing a hole in the pattern, so the only affect i can think the wad material could have on the pattern is that a very soft material may have some minor impact on set back deformation, but since its already in the sp10 cushioned wad- i doubt it would be noticeable

Yeah, use over powder card wads instead of fiber fillers.
