Default

take out one piece of shot and you will likely balance it

but - why are you adding the card? poor crimp?

i use these over buffered loads to keep the fine powder from leaking out which sometimes happens even with a good crimp ( i have opened flats of factory buffered shells and found some buffer powder has come out)

they are so thin I find I often have two or even three picked out together - and they are very flexible so there should be no affect on the pattern

Default Over shot card

I use different thicknesses of wads, mostly .125 (sometimes more than one) to help get a perfect crimp.

Of course I always place the wads in the bottom of the shot cup before I add the shot. Duhhh:
