Be careful with fillers. Depending on what You use and in a bottle neck case You could end up with an "everybody trying to squeeze into the hole at once" type effect. In short a pipe bomb. A lot of folk who used things to fine like cream of wheat in bottle necks had bad things happen. Try going to something like 4759 and no filler. Ya sure can't 8itch at an inch though

i used small amount of dryer lint thanks for the heads up!
 
trailboss i believe is meant to be it's replacement. it's a great powder for cowboy style loads and you can basically load anything with it. the max charge for any round/bullet is the powder filled up to the base of the bullet. once you find that out subtract 30% and that's your starting load. just don't compress it.

but i wish they would keep making 4759, it puts the hurt on with 700gr boolits in my 500mag. even more then h110 or lilgun.

I am going to try IMR 3031. This is not widely accepted as a cast bullet powder but I have found some loads in the Lyman manual that look interesting.

3031 will work because you're making it do work with the bottle neck. 4198 will make for better seal though
