16 ga Cheddite and Claybuster wads

[Harold Pickens]

Thanks all, was just trying to get rid of some wads I dont use. Got the load from the Hogdons reloading site. I actually fit it in a 2 1/2" cheddite with 7/8 oz. I loaded up a box to try. I prefer to load only 2 1/2" hulls but have lots of 2 3/4" available--have 500 black RGL's, 200 Feds, and 500+ Herters/chedite.
If they worked, the CB wads are cheaper and more readily available than SG and DR wads (and made in the USA).
Austin, may I should try it in some hulls that have a couple reloads on them. Mostly shooting clays with them, so they wont get jostled around like Hunting loads.
Daryl, I do have 1000 DR16 wads and lots of RGL's, and 20/28--that is a good load.

I was trying to do the same with stuff I’d acquired in package deals . And it ended up with me buying more of just about all of it ! Luckily atleast before the shortage craze began .

My rule of thumb is simply Don't use a wad intended for a AA hull, in anything but a AA hull. They are smaller in the gas cup end, in order to fit the tapered hull.
