[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2182234, member: 26077"] When you are making shot loads do not use a plastic shot collar. You will get tighter patterns if u use a felt over powder wad and a eight inch card wad over the shot. If u use a shot collar like modern shotshells it gets spun by the rifling and thus spins the shot. No plastic shot collar most of the shot comes straight out and doesn't get spun. They work great to about 15 yards for small game and grouse or snakes. [/QUOTE]
