I never went the extra mile of separating the shot by layering overshot cards. I like that idea and it would be worth some time at a patterning board. In a 28 gauge the brush wad is the only option for a spreader. I have some pollywad spreader inserts that are labeled 20/28, but they seem too big for a 28.
I just use the brush wads and load normally. I like them and use them in 20 and 12 gauge as well. I wish there was a brush wad for a 16 gauge.
Most of my small bore guns are tight choked and these brush wads are a nice way to open up the pattern. On several of mine I have thought about opening up the chokes but have been glad I haven't. You have a tight choked gun for long shots and then switch shells for close shooting...perfection!
