    Wadcutter shotshell load?

    New guy here. Glad to have found this forum.
    I've been loading shotshells for a bit for .45 acp and .357.
    I was thinking about loading a shotshell, but capped with a wadcutter. Similar to a buck and ball load.
    Have you guys tried anything like that? I have some 148 dewc, but thought that might be too heavy with shot. Was thinking about cutting a new mold for something along 75 or 80 grains.
    What say you?

    Have been meaning to work up a 38 special load with 9 or so shot capped by the Lee 95 grain rf crimped in the back tl groove. Just haven't tracked down some shot yet
