You know I never thought of that. I will have to see what I can find and give it a try. Hate to pay for things I can make myself and make it more realistic and save money! hehehehehe

Wabi,
Thanks. I did get some felt wads but I got good patterns with just a thick wad over the powder and shot, then a thin one over shot. Quicker to load and I did not notice a significant difference in fiber/felt wad and not. So might just stick with yours.
Now question I have, is where is the best place to get a 12 gauge wad cutter? Like Dixie, Possible Shop, eBay?
Thanks again,
Jeff

I have made some myself from hole saws, but it's a time consuming process with basic shop tools. (drill press, grinder, & file)
