Is the reasoning behind removing some shot when using the polywad spreader to make the load fit and ensure a good crimp, or to avoid an increase in pressure? I am using a 7/8 ounce recipe that is less than 5000 psi, and the insert fits without removing shot- would this load be OK pressure wise?

Thank you, the original load had a slight dish to it, so adding the spreader made the crimps prettier.

Loading spreaders I put a Polywad on top of my normal 7/8 oz load, lightest one published by Alliant. 16.5 Red Dot no changes to anything. It works fine.

That is the recipe I use, also. I do put 1/8 oz shot on top of the spreader.
