Yes, I do. The reason I load is that I shoot a lot of sporting clays, and have found that 7/8 oz of the best magnum shot is a load not easily found commercially. The key is hard shot. These hold patterns together extremely well even on rangy targets (over 50 yards) out of my gun choked M/IM. Shot over 300 today. I find that buying components smartly in large quantities allows me to load for $4.35/box.
I load on a Mec 9000, and am pretty fast. I don’t mind the chore most of the time.
I have also found a 3/4 oz is wonderful in the 28 gauge. And as a 16 gauge fan, I am also driven to handload the 16 too.
In the 28 gauge and .410, it’s strictly about cost.
The 7/8 oz load will break birds as smartly as any 1 oz or 1 1/8 oz load.
