Various sizes of bean will do the same. One poster mentioned the advantage over smaller shotgun wads is that the cereal or bean is not sensitive to the way it is placed in the shell. Thank you, Pete.

Pete here's an idea that perhaps you haven't considered. Instead of loading a28ga equivelent load in the 12ga just buy a 28 then have the Cheerios for breakfast

Cuz the 28 would kick harder and pattern worse and I can use all the money I saved to drive to shoots

Save money??? The 28 will appreciate in value therefor increasing your net worth

Brian at New Era Ammunition loaded some 2 inch paper 16's with the equivelent of a 28ga load and what a nice shell to shoot for Grouse and Woodcock. Almost as nice as actually useing my 28

Since I have yet to sell a Parker any 28ga would be a sunk cost for me and a capital gain for my heirs.
