So how do you apply the crushed cheerios just put shot in and add buffer and shake buffer down in with shot?

I don't use any buffer. I just pour in the pellets and tap them down and try to make top layer as level as possible for a good crimp. Tried using the waa12r red wad and 25 fit better in those wads. Could get 26 in with those wads but I just loaded 25.

25 of my casted pellets actually weigh 510gr. i weigh out my pellets and dont count them. it easier for me to weigh my shot than count out 25. i just get digital scale zeroed with powder scoop on there and start dropping pellets. they range from 506gr to 514gr per 25

still no answers but i did find one load using longshot powder. different primer and wad but more weight and powder than i was gonna use so i should be fine.

my main question is can you load buckshot using birdshot data as long as the buckshot weigh the same as the bird shot?? For example Hull: Remington STS Shot: 1 1/4 oz. shot (546 gr.) Poweder:Hodgdon Longshot powder 30.1 Grains Primer: Win 209 Wad: WAA12F114 PSI: 10,400 FPS: 1385...

is it a supermagnum 3.5"? i know mine wont cycle light loads like 7/8oz and 1oz shot. 1 1/8oz does ok but 1 1/4 or heavier is the sweet spot

I went with the +3 on my 21" 870. Havent got it yet but should arrive soon.

thanks let me know what data you have for loading with longshot. I hate buying a lb of powder just to load up 40 or so shells. I know 25 pellets of #4 fits good in the WAA12F114 but no way will 27 go in there. They crimp pretty good to. i also tried out a load with 25 pellets using a WAA12R and...

Ok Guys and gals im new here and i got a question about re-loading buckshot. I currently load birdshot loads and have never loaded any buckshot. My current load for birdshot is Hull: Remington STS Shot: 1 1/4 oz. shot (546 gr.) Poweder:Hodgdon Longshot powder 30.1 Grains Primer: Win 209...
