    Thanks guys, not sure why my initial reply didn't show up.
    Most of my fireforming is just get new brasses (sometime necked down/up) to fit the chamber, before the load development starts. So using bullet/powder plus 50k drive sounds more and more expensive now. I do have rifle which need fireforming a parent case (30-30) to a wildcat case (7-30). My guess for latter more powder/larger patch are required?
    I read in State they use cream of wheat method, but I think the cleaning patch sound less messy, and easy to get hold of for us.

    Thanks
