I recently picked up a bag of BPI's "Stretch 36" wads for my .410.
I was able to get a couple of patterns done this weekend.
Using 3 inch hulls, the wads - stiffer than "normal" .410 wads and with two slits - I loaded 5/8ths oz of #8 shot.
Normally, I pattern the .410 at 25 yards.
I patterned these at 30. FC.
80% in a 30 inch circle at 30 yards.
70% in a 18 inch circle at 30 yards.
Nice even patterns.
I shall try these on the Trap range - just to see.
