Hello,
I am new to reloading shotgun shells, I have reloaded rifle and pistol for many years now, but no shotshells so i went out and bought me the lyman shotshell book. i want to reload #2 buck. the book calls for 15 pellets (for #1 buck)witch i understand that they need to aranged in order by hand. My question is...... can i take the wieght of the #1 buckshot and match the wieght to #2 buck shot and load it???????

There are about 10 pellets per. oz. for #1 and 15 per. oz. for #2.
I load #4 buck withfull wads and get 1 less in the shell than they call for.
