Pglasgow - Thanks for responding so quickly. Thanks to Cayugad, I've experimented a bit with using corn meal as a buffer for my conical loads and was impressed with the increased performance...both in the accuracy and velocity depts.
However, I've never heard of anyone MIXING the corn meal with the powder, only using it on TOP of the powder for a better seal upon ignition of the powder.
What is the benefit of mixing corn meal with the powder? Are you trying to add powder volume without actually adding more powder?
Thanks again for sharing the chart...I was surprised to see the relative velocity of such a small load. I can now understand why you like this load for "teaching the young-ins." Gotta try that with the kids in my family.
Thanks again.
