[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 2159904, member: 14204"] That is probably a safe starting point and then adjust accordingly. [B]"My"[/B] unwritten rule is ~15-20 percent of the parent case powder capacity, For instance, if .30-06 has 58g powder capacity, 15% is 8.7g, and 20% is 11.6g. I use Winchester WSF in COW forming my .30 Gibbs 11g, fill COW to the shoulder area and then stuffed it with cotton balls.
