Paul,
I mentioned in a previous post using the WWSL 1oz. wad for a 7/8oz. load. You are correct in that all the shot is contained within the wad and gives a uniformly tight pattern but evenly distributed. It crimps well and fully protects the shot column. I've always used 1 1/8oz. wads for a 1oz. load, 1oz. wad for a 7/8oz. etc. I firmly believe that a uniform pattern, one that is consistent from shot to shot will break more targets and kill more game due to all of the payload arriving at the same time and on the same plane without shot stringing. That's the beauty of the reduced loads in any gauge. By the way your 15/16oz. load sounds interesting. Care to share it with us?
Regards,
Daryl
