Smiler23 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Hia folks, I'm messing around with some lead loads, and was wondering what the crack is with buffer, it's something iv not used before. Few lads iv spoke to have said it's ok to add to a receipe as long as I reduce the powder by a grain, is this right? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Always best to use published recipes. You may well be fine to drop some powder and add buffer, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cookoff013 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Always best to use published recipes. You may well be fine to drop some powder and add buffer, though. +1. I would be more inclined to seek dedicated buffered loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) Would it improve patterns in a 410 using fibre wads ? Is there any point in buffering when using #7s ? Edited January 29, 2017 by Walker570 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a great way of slowing down reloading.Some loads pattern better when they are slower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cervusman Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 The only time I've seen buffer loads are with Bismuth shot, I personally wouldn't use it with lead why would you want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the most 'famous' lead wildfowling loads were buffered. Why wouldn't you use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
