Found these at the range today, shot from a shooter who I overheard to say he was trying out some of his cast round ball loads in a 12ga.
These were light blue wads with LOTS of black on them from the powder.
Is this a sign of hot loads/over pressure?
What do you think? What does this tell all you more experienced shotgun shooters out there?
Looks like the gas seal (I think that is what it's called) at the bottom of the wad is blown out as well....
