gunfun 3,931 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I think most of us buy the cheap unbuffered buck. A few brands also heat iron the crimp shut, such as Winchester. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gunfun 3,931 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I dunno. possibly ground plastic. A lot of reloaders use cornmeal as a buffer material. Buffer should be fine enough to fill the void between pellets, not absorb moisture, and be light enough not to significantly add to the weight of the ejecta. It is considered to be a feature because it reduces shot deformation resulting in more even patterns over distance. If you hate it that much, just get cheaper shot. Sellier & Bellot has fairly cheap buck in cool looking clear shells that you can see all the way through. I guarantee there is no buffer in their 15pellet 00B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TapeWorm3 104 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I had same problems with Federal. I opened all the packs and put a dab of silicone on the end of each shell. No more spilt buffer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
