Yup.
Sometimes they come out in public, when they can get out of the parent's basement.
I load 1 1/8oz of shot for clays, simply because those are the wads I have and my press is set up for it.
Pretty simple, I'm sure I'd get the same results (clay goes poof) with 1 oz or even 7/8 oz, but once I have my MEC the way I like it and produces consistant results (good crimp every time, etc..) I just tend to leave it.
The difference between 1 1/8 oz and 1 oz is 1 pound every 128 shells, which at current Rotometal's prices works out to about $1.80 a pound. Breaking it down further, if I'm saving a pound of lead every 128 shells, or just over 5 boxes, I'm saving around $0.35 a box of shells.
$0.35 a box is not enough to make me make the effort to buy seperate wads, change my seat pressure, crimp settings, etc....
Just not worth it.
