    The only concern I would have is there is no way to determine the pressure potential you have created.

    Will the amount of stuffing cause a ‘powder bridge’ and dismantle your rifle violently?

    More than likely it’s a horribly weak brew that won’t leave crisp shoulders and a fully formed body taper and neck.

    There is a reason most use projectiles and appropriate loads.


    Not a dig at you, but please respect an explosive combination burning 6 inches from your face
