I haven't seem any of the Remington stuff in a long time.
But,, decades ago,, I learned to load "Buckshot" loads for myself.
.357 brass.
Speer shot shell capsules.
(3) pieces of #1 buckshot.
Insert the 3 pieces of buckshot in the capsule. (Sometimes,, due to the less than perfect roundness of the buckshot,, gently rolling the balls once, in a single direction, between 2 steel plates, puts a flat side on the shot. It allows for easy sliding of the buckshot into the plastic capsule, w/o cracking the plastic.)
Weigh the loaded capsules.
Use a mild powder charge (such as for target ammo) of your preferred powder based upon the weight of the full capsule.
Fun to shoot at paper to "amaze your friends," or at closer distances,, vermin control.
I did shoot at a dog long ago with this load. (Mom's orders to burn their butts etc, due to the damages they were causing.) Well from about 15-20 yds,, I had (1) of the pellets break skin, and then fell out of the small wound. I only learned of that due to the owner of the dog confronting my mother & myself.
Never tried them for serious close range penetration stuff.
