I have patterned loads trying both the Poly Wad Spreader-Rs and Ballistic Products spreader inserts with the same recipe and I have found the Poly Wads to be much more effective at opening up the pattern over BP insert. Just my observation.

I have never used Polywads for reloading. I didn't see a big difference using a brush wad with and without the Spreader X insert to be honest. I probably should have done more testing but I'd honestly rather pull my own teeth out with a grappling hook than keep shooting at pattern boards.
