RE: which wad?
I like a OJ carton wad about .023" over the powder lube wad and a plastic wad cut from gallon ice cream buckets about .043". I saw the vertical shrink a lot. I think they expand sealing the bore better then the .060" fiber wads I was using. The .44-100 St shoots best with one on the powder and two under the bullet.
The reason a dog has so many friends is because he wags his tail instead of his tongue.
