I looked at my hornady manual in search for how much H4831 to throw in the cases, even though I remember hearing you can just fill the case up with H4831 and put a bullet on top and call it good. That's damn near what I did, at 60.5 grains:

I seated the bullet at the cannelure and called it good. Then we went to the range. That sob (the rifle) was shooting bug hole groups. I was pretty impressed with it. I told my buddy, Its nice to get lucky every once in a while. Load development was done for that one...
