EvilTwin: I will probably give PP a go eventually. Again, I'm still blowing out virgin brass and burning up my odd lots of powder in that process. A couple tins of hold over Elephant and some Dragon (Chinese) that a local dealer carried. There's 25 lbs of 2F Goex Express waiting in the wings though.

I was initially compressing after dropping in 0.060 wad, but some of the Shiloh boys were critical of that. They implied that one did not want to eliminate any of the wad's shock absorbing or sealing character. That given, I compress before the wad goes in now. I've not done cookies yet.

I will never do competition either, but enjoy the challenge of trying to wring the most out of anything. Neat rifles, but a faster clean up would leave more time for other endeavors. Thanks again for your posts, 1Minute
