Default CB0078-16 wads for 7/8 loads

hi guys. have finally got the wife back shooting comfortably again.luckily we found the magic combo of gun and load. now the issue is,like the rest of the world, i only have a small supply of the old dr-16 wads left. i've looked at listed loads for 7/8 16 gauge and found the CB0078-16 wads . any one else used these in cheddite hulls ? loading 2 3/4 for simplicity. i would love some experienced input. i have tons of Win x/pert and Herters cheddite hulls. for powders i have Greendot,Universal,Longshot,Bluedot ,and a little of Unique.
the gun she's shooting is my Fox Sterlingworth. that gun should handle most moderate pressures. thanks for any input. matt k

Yeah I keep a case of the CB 16 1 ounce and a case of the CB 16 7/8 ounce wads . The only difference in the two wads is a displacement dimple in the bottom of the shot cup on the 7/8 wads . I don’t load 7/8 ounce 16’s however the 7/8 wad with one ounce of shot makes a nice flat crimp in the newer ribbed WIN 16 gauge hulls and I used the 1 ounce wads in the black REM hulls . I’ve not tried Cheddite hulls and at present all I’m loading are the old AA style WIN red 16 gauge unribbed hulls .
