Negative, Wayne, that AL8 load was straight out of Lyman's loading handbook, with 2oz. shot and a built-up wad column. Second Edition, page 93.

Sure was effective, #8 1/2's, 4's, 5's or 2's using Bliemeister hard shot from Alberta. Beautiful patterns, a full 5 to 8% better than nickle or copper plated of the same size.

The #3's were also good, but most were oblong. They still patterned well, but the 2's were slightly better, rarely having more than 6 or 8 pellets out of the 30" pattern at 40 yards, with severe concentration in the centre 20".

This AL8 load did not develop even close to the pressure of WW factory ammo.

2oz. of #8 1/2's is roughly 1,000 pellets, btw.
