[QUOTE="USCGLongBow, post: 961858, member: 81191"] I could be wrong, but my guess is you wouldn't get the effects of caseforming using a reduced load of 4046. The reason is the powder burn rate is slow enough that it would propel your COW out of the barrel before building enough pressure to change your case dimensions. I'm thinking you would need almost a case of powder to do it, which means you won't have any COW in the case, and the lack of weighted projectile will keep the powder from having enough time to build pressure. You could try it, but I think you would have the same dimensions as virgin brass. Good luck man [/QUOTE]
