Pretty fair trapshooter, been at it for about fifty years, and without bragging feel that at sixteen yards 25s are fairly easy (or 24s anyway). 96+ % average most years at 16 and caps. All said, I've been shooting 1 1/8 oz for most of my career. Two years ago I tried 1 oz for 16 up to 20 yards and average didn't change, in fact went up a tenth or two of a percent. I saw a bag of 7/8 oz wads the other day and picked one up. Saturday, I shot a couple 16 yard rounds with 7/8 oz of #8 and ran both of them. Breaks were fine but no ink spots and no cheap chips either.
Think I've found something new to play with for the rest of the year. Still have to use the 1 1/8 for our handicap as my team is back to 25 yards (perhaps mental, but it works for me).
Anyone else playing with 7/8, or even 1/4?
