Doesn't cerrosafe contract a bit when it cools down? I seem to remember that. Would pop away from the brass case if that was the case...
Did not seem to do so when I used it but then I did not wait that long after the Cerrosafe had solidify. Casting the Cerrosafe beyond the case mouth makes a mechanical step that prevents the Cerrosafe plug from pulling free of the brass.
Great advice, this,....I'll toss in that a reversed patch on a ring jag should push a wad of stout grease ahead of it, to a pre-determined depth,...the cerro to be poured against the grease, and the PATCH easily withdrawn.
Patches wadded up in front of Cerrosafe CAN create hassles, in the absence of a polished, damn close to bore sized, stick of drill rod.
Sticking bent stainless rods into the throat might not be condusive to long term accuracy, a stunt virtually BEGGING to chew up a critical area of the chamber.
I LOATHE the easy out idea,.... it's something from outer space.
