Uniwads?

"You can take a batch of mixed shotshell hulls of many different brands and base heights and, as long as they are all 12-gauge and in good condition, they can all be loaded with almost any desired shot and powder charge. The Uniwad does not require any adjustment of the load, as it accommodates itself to whatever space is left for a wad column. This greatly simplifies the reloading process."

I read this statement in the ABC's of Reloading, 4th edition by Dean A. Grennell. Pg 101. I have also read on this board, some are saying they do not recommend using Uniwads for some reason.

Is anyone using Uniwads and what do you think of them? Sounds like the Uniwad can be used with any "good" husk......it does say not to use it with powders such as Red Dot which are sensitive to wad pressure. If that is the case, then most of the cheaper husks should be reload-able at least once.....it sounds like? It would be nice to only have to have one wad for different loads/shells.

Just trying to find out, if you used them, what did you think of them? Pros & Cons?
