Trim a 1/4" off the top of the wad, or just use a mm1275

[jehler]

Or whatever the next smaller mm is called

Thanks. That's what I was hoping to hear. Cutting the tops off off each one would suck.

The one for 2 3/4" shells right?

FYI trimming the tops of wads is common, sometimes you need spacers to bring the shot to the top of the wad, sometimes, especially with steel powder the wad sits to high, and to keep it out of the crimp trimming the wad down kills two birds with one stone

I'll keep that in mind. What's the best way to trim them down? Fillet knife?

Scissors

Wouldn't that put a bend in the top of the wad?

[assateague]

Wad cutting scissors, I'm sure. Probably run you about $79.
