Any 2 3/4" 12 gauge case
Any 209 primer
32.0 grains of Hi-Skor 700-X
11 to 12 .125 nitro card wads
Crimp, and you're done (no filler needed)

You can use any cardboard wad, but you might have to adjust the number depending on the thickness of the wad.

I've used this load for the last several years and it works well; when you fire it, the cardboard shreds and looks like a puff of feathers off a bird....it's also biodegradable. I would advise anyone that you give it to that even though these loads are blanks, AT CLOSE RANGE THEY CAN BE LETHAL!!!!!
