I ordered the 12 ga felt wads (dry) from the Possibles Shop out of Radium Springs New Mexico. While patterning, I tried various combinations. My best, 80 grains Trip 7 FFg over SHOT card, 2 dry felt wads, 90 grains (volumetrically) #5 shot. At 30 yards I was sifting a turkeyhead target, w/ improved cylinder choke.
I will give that a try the next time out. Thanks. So you are loading 80 grains of T-7 2f, then a over the powder wad, or two over the shot cards, then two of the dry felt wads, and then the 90 grains of shot, and then another over the shot card? Does that sound right?
