I made some loads of my own. It may not be right but they worked, I didn’t get blown up. I put the zero buck in the wad one at a time,sprinkled #9 shot in to take up the excess space to get the correct amount of weight. They would shoot hell out of pigs I caught in traps. I’ve forgotten how many 0 buck pellets would go in a 1 1/4 wad. The hard part is getting the correct weight in the wad, the zero buck wouldn’t be enough weight.

I made my own 0 buck, didn’t cost much for these shells. I marked the primer black with a permanent marker to know it was a buckshot. Used red for 9’s, green for 8’s, blue for 6’s. Do any of you do that?
